Who we are

The Young Orators (TYO) is the flagship initiative of the prestigious Peat Philips Foundation (PPF). A non-profit organization dedicated to shaping the leaders of tomorrow. Through TYO, we aim to inspire young people aged 16 to 20 to become articulate speakers, critical thinkers, and confident leaders

By participating in TYO, young orators receive hands-on training in public speaking, debate, and leadership skills. We create a vibrant platform for young people to develop both academically and personally, with real-world applications that build the foundation for lifelong success and make meaningful contributions to their communities and beyond.

Our mission is simple but powerful: To inspire a generation of confident, thoughtful, and eloquent changemakers.
