Its goal is to better the welfare of the youth in Tonga through programmes that foster responsibility, citizenship, community service and leadership.
The TNYC, established in 1991, is the biggest local NGO with offices in the six main islands. As well as sports, environmental awareness, education, health and mental wellbeing, TNYC also focuses on entrepreneurship, vocations and careers.
One of the areas it is actively involved in is helping youth to set up agricultural activities and projects from which they can benefit.
