About us

LP4Y accompanies Young Adults living in extreme poverty (on less than US$1.90 per day) who are victims of exclusion (people with disabilities, orphans, victims of domestic violence, Young prisoners or ex-prisoners, Young single mothers, migrants …).Our centers provide an ideal environment where Young Adults can develop their Life Projects and work towards social and financial autonomy, allowing them eventually to become agents for development in their communities. LP4Y operates in 11 countries across the world. In India, there are LP4Y centers in Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, Bangalore, Raipur, and Kolkata. At the moment we are working on the opening of a new "Green Village" center in Ranihati (Howrah district, West Bengal). The Green Village is a residential training center for young excluded women aged 18-24 which aims to have a positive impact on the environment and raise awareness about sustainable development.
