Bangladesh
Youth First Concerns (BYFC)
was formed in 1995 as a Christian
humanitarian and development
organisation to address the
needs of young people and to
help them find employment. A
group of professionals, Christian
business people, clergymen and
youth leaders of many churches
founded BYFC. With an initial
encouragement from a similar
Christian organisation, Bangladesh
Youth First Concerns launched
its operation in assisting poverty
stricken people, school dropouts
and unemployed youths in their
quest for a meaningful life
and to earn a living for their
basic needs. BYFC started
its operation by hosting seminars
on awareness building, anti-
drug and narcotics education,
skill development for income
generation and disaster preparedness
activities. We have been focusing
our developmental activities
in an integrated manner for
more socially and environmentally
sound transformation in the
years to come. The main target
of BYFC is youth groups in local
communities. Through organising
seminars, workshops, youth camps
and development programs BYFC
seeks to prepare the youths
for the responsibilities of
family life, citizenship, working
spirit, and moral values. We
do this by providing training
on awareness building, better
living and other development
activities for a desired life
style.
