ABOUT THE ANGELLYH YAMBO FOUNDATION

The Angellyh Yambo Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing gun violence and promoting education. Born from the tragic loss of our beloved niece Angellyh.

The Angellyh Yambo Foundation is committed to creating meaningful change through multifaceted initiatives. Guided by our commitment to creating safer communities through educational programs that empower youth to thrive and become agents of positive change, our organization leverages its extensive experience and deep roots in The Bronx to develop targeted and tailored programs that directly address the unique challenges faced by the borough’s residents. 

By utilizing years of hands-on engagement and understanding the unique challenges faced by the community, our initiatives aim to pave the way for a brighter future and enhanced quality of life for our youth. Central to this mission is a belief that every young person has a right to live, learn, and flourish in an environment free from the threat and consequences of gun violence. Through advocacy, strategic partnerships, and innovative interventions, the organization strives to dismantle the cycles of violence and create sustainable, systemic change that will ripple across generations, ensuring that no more young lives are cut short by senseless acts of violence. With a multifaceted approach that integrates education, technology, health wellness, art, workforce development, the initiative delivers comprehensive and targeted programs tailored to address the unique challenges faced by the borough.

Recognizing the links between gun violence and the perpetual poverty that has plagued The Bronx for decades, the organization crafts gun violence prevention strategies designed to disrupt the cycle of violence and creates pathways to opportunity. Beyond direct programming, the Angellyh Yambo Foundation assumes a role in driving systemic change, actively engaging in policy advocacy to shape legislation and public discourse around gun violence prevention. The organization’s unwavering commitment to raising awareness, conducting rigorous data research, and disseminating educational resources. The Angellyh Yambo Foundation will continue to honor Angellyh’s memory and pave the way for a safer, more vibrant future for all Bronxites. We are hoping to serve as a beacon of hope, inspiring young people and communities to unite in the fight against gun violence and build a brighter tomorrow where every individual can thrive without fear.
