About the Programme

Khensani's Collection introduces entrepreneurship as a practical pathway to economic participation. The programme develops entrepreneurial mindset, innovation, opportunity identification and real business skills — with learners undertaking hands-on business projects using donated goods as enterprise-learning and fundraising resources.

The approach links enterprise activity with education, self-reliance and opportunity creation — helping young people see themselves as future contributors to their communities and the broader economy.
