In the cool evening of April 12, 2011 in a university dormitory in Nigeria, God spoke to the founder, Abraham Owoseni whilst praying after a 3-day fast:
These words were the foundation upon which Young Breeds was established as a global mission to the world of young people.
As Abraham continued brooding, searching, preparing and digging, the mandate became evident and clearer. By 2013, Abraham together with a team of high school graduates started a tour, visiting a number of secondary schools within the neighbourhood, teaching and grooming them on career and leadership development. By 2014, other schools within adjoining local government areas of Lagos and Ogun States, Nigeria had been reached. In 2015, Young Breeds became a registered entity to propagate her global mission.
In our context, young refers to: babies, toddlers, pre-schoolers, school-aged children, preteens, teens, and young adults.

In our context, education means breeding, drawing out the best the best in every young person, spirit, soul and body.
