About Us

HY Trust is a UK-based charity dedicated to two things: empowering UK youth through community activities, and supporting orphaned children around the world through education-centred programmes delivered with trusted partners. Every child deserves safety, dignity, and the chance to learn. We strengthen young lives in the UK and support orphaned children globally, because education and community are how cycles of hardship are broken.

Our Approach

- Child-First: Safety, dignity, and long-term wellbeing drive every decision.

- Education at the Core: The most reliable route to change a life and community.

- Partnership & Accountability: We work with vetted organisations, clear outcomes, and transparent reporting.

- Community Power: Local volunteers, faith and civic groups, and businesses fuel our work.

What We Do in the UK

We create safe, positive spaces where young people belong, grow skills, and give back.

Football Tournaments

Our tournaments create a safe, structured space where young people can compete, learn, and belong. Qualified volunteers and clear codes of conduct keep the focus on fair play and respect.
On the pitch, players develop teamwork, leadership, and communication—skills that carry into school, home, and work. Fitness improves, confidence grows, and friendships form across neighbourhoods and backgrounds.
Families and local supporters turn match day into a community occasion. The energy, medals, and small moments of encouragement build pride—and inspire young people to stay active and aim higher.

5k Charity Run

Our 5K runs are beginner, friendly and inclusive — walk, jog, or run at your pace. Simple training tips and supportive marshals help first-timers cross the finish line with a smile.
Each step supports our mission: proceeds fuel UK youth activities and help fund education for orphaned children abroad. Participants see how small efforts add up to life-changing impact.
These events also build healthy habits and confidence. People return with friends, families run together, and workplaces form teams—creating a positive routine that strengthens wellbeing and community ties.

50k Walkathon

The 50K walkathon is a challenge with a purpose. Clear waypoints, safety support, and team spirit make a big distance feel achievable— and unforgettable.
Walkers raise significant funds through sponsorships, directly strengthening local youth work and global orphan education. The journey turns personal resilience into practical help for children in need.
Participants often describe a mindset shift: new friendships, deeper gratitude, and a renewed commitment to serve. The shared effort becomes a story the whole community can celebrate.

We Are One Family

HY Trust is not just a charity, it’s a FAMILY. What makes our work impactful is our countless supporters who believe in making a difference and who understand their responsibilities to help others. And because of you, we are operating in UK, Kenya, Ethiopia, and the Gambia.
