Little does many ever realize how to make an Extra Income as a Youth Corps member In Nigeria. There they get bankrupt at the end of their service year. Let me teach you “HOW” from experience.

Making an extra income as an NYSC Youth Corps member in Nigeria is becoming more and more necessary. The Federal Government monthly allowance of Nineteen thousand Eight hundred (19,800) can hardly sustain a Youth Corps members’ daily needs.

In some cases, the little State allowances or stipends does not come regularly.

In an effort to cushion the effect, many youth corps members have resorted to asking their parents for supplementary funding.

While other corps member who don’t have that luxury would have to find a legitimate means to augment the monthly allowance.

The following tips should help.

How To Make An Extra Income As A Youth Corps Member

Hospitality

The hospitality industry is a lucrative business avenue that can fetch you a cool money during your service year.

As you get used to the new environment, use that moment to initiate some programmes or projects that will make people enjoy their stay in such places.

For example, you can initiate restaurant and food services, tourism destinations, meetings hotel booking, and event planning among others. These can get you an extra income during and after your service year if you decide to settle in the community.

Laundry Services

If you are deployed to an urban area or a city as a youth corps member, this can be a strategic business to undertake. Imagine how many people who need the services of someone to handle their laundry.
