Who Are We?

We are passionate about supporting the next generation of business leaders. Our initiative offers grants to those aged 16-23 with a dream to start their own business. Every quater we invite aspiring entrepreneurs to have the opportunity to pitch their ideas, and successful candidates receive £3,000.00 in cash or cheque. In addition to financial support, we provide mentorship after the grant is received to help guide them through their entrepreneurial journey.

At Kharis Initiative, we are dedicated to guiding young people, ages 16-23, towards achieving their dream careers. Through strong partnerships with leading organisations, we open doors to meaningful opportunities and career paths through our apprenticeship programme.
