     Background

In response to the current difficult situations that Somali society are facing including drought, civil war, piracy and lack of     governmental institutions (such as: health centers, schools, roads) in Somalia for more than twenty years. We felt that it is vitally     important to set up a charitable relief organization to help those in need in the rural and urban areas mostly in the society for     essential services. TSS encourages and strengthens collective social, economic, cultural, and environmental, peace and     technological initiatives developed by youth themselves. TSS strives to remove obstacles to youth empowerment so that they have   sustainable livelihoods and successful living standards.

TSS an all youth inclusive organization, is based in the centre of the largest youth community and is entirely staffed by youth     members, aiming to assist marginalized and disenfranchised Communities to help them create and sustain income generating, lead ahealthy life.
