Building Youth Around the World (BYAW) is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Foundation that was established by Braedon McCracken in 2009  to truly make a difference for children around the world.  BYAW completed its first humanitarian project in IloIlo Philippines. During this project BYAW delivered school, medical and nutritional supplies to children and their families. 

BYAW has since participated in over 100 projects in the United States, Africa, South America, Mexico and many others places.

The core vision of the foundation is to increase the potential for success in those youth (ages 0 to 19) in the world that lack the means and abilities to learn, grow and thrive in their younger years.  The work Building Youth Around the World accomplishes helps children become more productive and giving in the communities in which they live.  Through genuine, yet simple acts of compassion and love, Building Youth Around the World helps change many young people’s lives in such a way that they have a better opportunity to become leaders in the societies and countries in which they live.
