My Paper (English)
![This year's Citi-YMCA Youth For Causes (YFC) programme is truly special because the challenge of Covid-19 impacts not only our daily lives but the lives of those in the social service sector. Since 2003, the YFC programme has been working with youth, mentors and social service agencies (SSAs) to meet the unmet needs of SSAs through social innovation and the entrepreneurial spirit.
2020 will not be business-as-usual. Society needs you to rise up to the occasion and innovate to create positive social impact in new and meaningful ways.
Therefore, the YFC programme will be conducted digitally this year. This is to minimise close contact and safeguard the health of all involved, including students, staff, volunteers and organisers.
.
[Project Scope: Going Online]
• Advocacy and Fundraising: To be conducted online, until further notice
• Engagement of SSAs, mentors and volunteers: To take place online as much as possible
• Scoring Guidelines: To factor in creativity in navigating COVID-19 measures, along with meaningful impact on SSAs. There will also be a new important scoring criterion, where SSA’s will evaluate their teams’ projects and conduct.
.
[Changes to YFC 2020 Events]
• Proposal Submission Deadline: Extended to Sunday, 3 May
• Selection Interview (Conducted Online): Saturday, May 16
