About Company
Rescue A Young Life started as an NPO providing support services to the
younger as well as the older generation from Anxiety, Depression,
Bullying, and other life challenges.
We equip and empower youth
Manage behaviours, adolescent, awareness development programme
Grief and trauma counselling services for children
Programmes that build resilience and coping skills

We worked closely with SADAG who has supplied us with information


brochures and contact resources to assist with our workshops in Primary
Schools, High Schools, University Students and Group Homes.
We also provide free face-to-face counseling to youth weekly.
RAYL was inspired and founded by its Director Bronwyn Newman on the
22nd of December 2016, from her own personal experience with loss and
suicide.
She writes, ”My son Rayél died from suicide at the tender age of 14 years
old. He was a healthy academic, who won a scholarship to a private school
and played baseball for Battswood Club, and participated in church as well
as in upliftment gardening programs.
This was a goal-driven scholarship student who lost all hope and self-
confidence in a day.
His death had an enormous impact and realization in our lives that have
changed our hearts forever. “
Bronwyn started researching sites and stats around the world on teen
suicide and found we have no individual classroom support on Bullying,
Depression, and Anxiety which affects young lives as early as 9 years old,
it is researched that we are losing children to drugs, alcohol and suicide
as early as 10 years of age.
During research and counseling of youth, she then began to realize why
RAYEL saw every underprivileged child as a friend, whether they were
good or bad and in turn, showed kindness, support, forgiveness, and love.
This has become her purpose in life to share her son’s love and kindness
by rescuing a young life.
Rescue A Young LIfe have spent countless days having to rethink,
reshuffle and relook at how we can be a stronger, more positive change to
uplift children in poor communities on more than one scale.
We have found our forward thinking purpose once again and decided we would
like to campaign more, give more to support “I THINK, THEREFORE I AM” and
“WISE UP & RISE UP ON MENTAL WELLNESS”
This will in turn develop into a stronger and much more lucrative support
system to the children and schools in the poverty-stricken communities.
Vision
Is for every growing child to see a future
knowing they can make a difference in
their lives and their community by making
positive life decisions and choices. Equip
and empower our youth with the
necessary coping mechanisms so they
can be better prepared to proceed
mentally, confidentially and academically
in a healthy social and diverse
environment.

Mission
Is to make every child feel and know that
they are not alone.
Most of their day is spent in a school, many
of them feel safe and know they will receive
a warm meal and receive a listening ear.
We need to keep their goals driven and
positive energy every step of the way.

Have every child filled with tenderness


and faith in believing that no matter
what challenges they may face in life,
they can have a voice, choice, and
confidence to overcome them, and,
have the continuous support structure
to give them assistance to face it.
