The I.B. Taylor-Kamara Foundation, Inc. (IBTK Foundation), a New York based non-profit organization, was established in 2005 by the children of the late Ishmael Byne Taylor-Kamara, a Sierra Leonean lawyer, civil servant and diplomat. The organization seeks to raise and provide funds to support the development of human and institutional capacity of Sierra Leoneans through funding local organizations to tackle the myriad challenges facing their country. The Foundation’s efforts are geared primarily towards the education sector, youth empowerment and gender equity. It has in the past, among other initiatives, funded research projects of University of Sierra Leone students, various scholarship programs, and supported programs spearheaded by women to increase their participation in the governance and decision-making arena in Sierra Leone.
Our members and collaborators are a diverse group of dedicated individuals and leaders, including educators, youth advocates, and community organizers. They bring a wealth of experience and passion to our mission, working collaboratively to drive positive change, empower the global community , and promote education, youth and gender equity, and sustainable development. Each plays a crucial role in advancing the foundation’s goals and fostering a brighter future for Sierra Leone.
From our annual forums to youth retreats and member workshops, we host numerous events each year in collaboration with our members, collaborators, and partner organizations throughout the global community in support of funding local organizations.
IBTK promotes an equitable society where communities can thrive as leaders and change-makers.
