Yhia Yisrael
Financial Services Professional & Financial Literacy Advocate
Personal Notes
Greetings, dear friends. My name is Yhia L Yisrael, and my life’s is dedicated to one mission — to bring Hope where there is despair, alter lifestyles, become light where there is darkness, and transformation where there is brokenness.
From my early days in Uganda to earning advanced degrees in Finance and International Business in the United States, my journey has been shaped by challenges that became opportunities and hardships that became stepping stones. I have learned that success is not defined by titles, possessions, or recognition — it is measured by the lives we touch, the hope we restore, and the chains we help break.
Through the Apostle Lia Lorylyce Foundation and my role as a Certified Financial Education Instructor℠, I walk alongside individuals and families, helping them break cycles of poverty, recover their dignity, and step into financial and spiritual freedom. My calling is not only to teach financial literacy but to alter lifestyles — equipping people with the tools, confidence, and faith they need to rise above their circumstances and embrace a life of purpose and prosperity.
I serve with compassion because I know what it means to face impossible odds. I have witnessed firsthand the power of love, perseverance, and faith in Jesus Christ to open doors that once seemed closed. And I want you to know — no matter where you are today, you too can overcome, rebuild, and thrive.
Thank you for allowing me to be part of your journey. Together, we can transform lives, lift communities, and change generations to come.
