At Baga’s House, we believe in the power of community, resilience, and the strength that comes from healing together. Named for the loving embrace of a caring elder, Baga’s House is a place where everyone is welcomed as family, where people can come as they are, and where no one has to face life’s challenges alone. We are here to create a space that feels like home—a space that supports, empowers, and uplifts those who need it most.
Our Mission
Baga’s House is committed to empowering young people through practical, hands-on learning and mentorship. We are here to uplift those who have been overlooked or underserved, giving them the skills, confidence, and support they need to build meaningful futures. At Baga’s House, we believe that every individual deserves the chance to thrive, no matter where they come from or the challenges they’ve faced. Our mission is simple: to be a guiding light for those ready to learn, to grow, and to make a plan to create a better path forward.
What We Do
At Baga’s House, we combine practical skill-building with personal mentorship to create transformative opportunities for young people. Here’s how we make an impact:
Community Building: Baga’s House is a community. We host workshops, events, and group activities that foster collaboration and connection. Participants learn to work together, solve problems, and support each other, building relationships that last well beyond their time in our programs. We believe that by fostering a sense of belonging, we empower individuals to grow into resilient, capable adults.
Vocational Training: We offer hands-on vocational training programs designed to teach practical skills that matter in the real world. From carpentry and culinary arts to automotive repair and basic IT skills, our programs are built to equip participants with the abilities they need to enter the workforce or take on projects in their communities.
Mentorship: We match each young person with a mentor—a dedicated guide who supports them through their journey. Our mentors provide real-world knowledge, guidance, and a sense of connection, acting as role models and coaches. This one-on-one approach helps participants not only learn skills but also develop a strong sense of purpose and confidence.
