YGM Creating Change!

Empowering the next Generation since 2012

Since its inception in 2012, Young Generation Movement (YGM) has been dedicated to empowering Atlanta’s youth through targeted initiatives aimed at holistic development. Our efforts are centered around three core causes: Wellness & Health, Anti-Violence, and Agriculture & Sustainability.

The YG Urban Green program, a cornerstone of our operations, tackles childhood obesity by promoting urban farming and providing access to nutritious, plant-based meals at the YG Urban Café. Beyond nutrition, we engage in anti-violence activities, educational outreach, and sustainable agricultural practices, cultivating an environment where young individuals can thrive as proactive community leaders.

Through strategic partnerships with local businesses and community organizations, YGM ensures our programs are impactful and accessible, nurturing well-informed, healthy generations committed to personal and community wellness. Join us as we plant seeds of change for a sustainable future.
