The Youth Employment Service (YES) believes in the power of creativity and the limitless potential of South African youth.
IGNITING CREATIVITY
Youth are the heartbeat of innovation. By offering them a platform to be seen and remunerated accordingly, we can ignite their creativity and bring their visions to light.
INSPIRING THE FUTURE
The YES x YCC collaboration provides space and exposure for emerging talents, offering you the opportunity to get involved.
