Harambee Youth Training Co. Harambee is a ministry in St. Louis, MO, USA. We provide job training & mentoring for teens and free home repair for city homeowners.

Harambee is a Swahili word which means “let’s pull together!” Harambee Youth Training has its roots in a small ministry of New City Fellowship of St. Louis (NCF) that was begun in 1996 to give job training and mentoring to a few young men. Today, Harambee has grown into a separate 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization which partners with many other local churches, businesses, and organizations. We use a combination of volunteer community service projects and classroom training to give at-risk urban youth an opportunity to learn a healthy work ethic, self-discipline, confidence, and team dynamics as well as profitable skills in the construction trades. Harambee is a part of our commitment to the West End and Hamilton Heights neighborhoods of Saint Louis city. Since 1996, teens from these neighborhoods have worked in connection with NCF in landscaping, general property maintenance, roofing and light construction (painting, tuckpointing & framing). Today our sole concentration is in tuckpointing. NOTE: We are located in the United States. If you are in South Africa, you are looking for Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator in Johannesburg.

What happens when young people are given the opportunity to work hard, learn valuable skills, and serve their community?

At Harambee Youth Training Program, we’re doing more than teaching trades—we’re helping shape future leaders.

Last year, over 100 youth worked alongside our team to provide more than $450,000 worth of free tuckpointing and home repair services to low-income families.

This summer, follow along as we train, mentor, and walk alongside the next generation.

Together, we’re building skills, restoring homes, and investing in young people who will impact their communities for years to come.

Follow, share, and help us reach more people who believe in the next generation.
