The Private Equity Foundation seeks dynamic youth organisations working for social change

The Private Equity Foundation is inviting expressions of interest from youth organisations working to address the problem of young people not in education, employment or training.

Chief Executive Shaks Ghosh said: "We aim to support a small number of ambitious third-sector organisations who are looking to really step-change their activities and impact.

"We are not about just giving money: we work closely with organisations to help support them through the process of development and change, bringing relevant skills and expertise from across the private equity community and beyond."

"Our approach is grounded in the disciplines of the business world, but we never forget that our ultimate aim is to stop the waste of young people's lives, talents and skills."

Set up in 2006, the Foundation's mission is to help young people achieve their full potential by addressing the problem of young people not in education, employment or training.
