Talent is universal. Opportunity is not.
Around the world, too many young people are denied access to education and the labour market. Many face discrimination, violence, and a lack of voice in decisions that shape their lives.
KIYO believes in changing that. We empower youth to discover their talents, claim their rights, and become leaders of a just and sustainable future.
By naming KIYO in your will, you can help make this vision possible—long after today.
Why include KIYO in your legacy?
Your bequest helps create lasting change by:
🟢 Investing in solutions that give youth real opportunities—not just short-term fixes.
🟢Supporting youth centred projects around the world, in collaboration with trusted partners.
🟢Promoting quality education, decent work and active citizenship.
🟢Creating quality learning environments where young people can develope their talents, grow their skills, realize their potential, and stand up for their rights.
🟢Encouraging global solidarity through information, education and volunteering.
Other ways to give
You can also support KIYO during your lifetime by donating property or money. This may allow you to organize the distribution of your assets in advance and could reduce the inheritance tax for your heirs.
Every gift matters. Annual donations of €40 or more come with a 45% tax reduction and a tax certificate. KIYO is government-accredited, meaning we pay no tax on the amount you give—your contribution goes directly to our mission.

I believe in KIYO's mission
“I came in touch with KIYO in 2011 during my visit to Rio de Janeiro. There, I met KIYO colleague Jan Daniëls, who devoted his heart and soul to the rights of children and youth from the favelas. I understood from this visit that investing in the rights of children and youth is a sustainable investment for a better future. Back in Belgium, I decided to continue to volunteer for children and youth and joined the Governance Board of KIYO. Now I support KIYO in the capacity of volunteer legacy advisor because this source of income is more than necessary to continue our important work for children and youth.”
