Young Entrepreneurs
Young entrepreneurs build a community to develop innovative and value-based business solutions that help them move out of poverty. Launched in 2023 in Plateau State, Nigeria, this is the youngest movement with five groups of about 12 young business people in 2025.
Holistic & Empowering
Microfinance and business training are an integral part of the weekly meetings, as is psychosocial support as most people in this region are traumatized because of recent massacres. Times of sharing in small groups create a safe space to heal and to gain confidence.
Leaders
Ifemade and Timothy recently moved to Jos, a city that is considered to be the gateway to the North of Nigeria. They left the business metropolis of Lagos because they feel called to coach young people in Plateau State, a region where people have traditionally been less exposed to business. Tim has a degree in agricultural economics and Ife majored in accounting. Together they recently launched Itzinya Jos an Entrepreneurship Development Organization, that partners with Rings of Hope in building the Young Entrepreneurs Movement.
