YSS 10th Years Anniversary
In essence, the official logo of YSS 10th Year Anniversary is the placement of the raising hand sign made up of ribbon motions, the number 10, and YSS official logo.
Symbolises the global volunteering sign, a raising hand portrays a deep sense of altruism as volunteers and the lives they touch synergise through the act of volunteering and creating life-long impact.
Made up of ribbon motions in red and gold, the logo portrays hope, peace, and the fiery passion of our Student Volunteers as they “win people’s hearts, mind and soul beyond borders”.
The positioning of YSS logo within the number 10 signifies the establishment of YSS since 2012 pivoting the movement of Student Volunteers for 10 years.

Volunteer Leadership Development Programme (VLDP)
2 – 4 December 2021
A new VLDP concept was then introduced in 2021 as YSS envisioned to intensify the extensive training programme from a “seminar” programme format to a “train & pitch” programme format. Participants are broadened to undergraduate students in all higher learning institutions and registered as a team compared to before which was only limited for YSS Alumni. With the tagline “youth lead, youth initiate”, YSS works together with its partners to provide seed funding for registered team who have successfully pitched their projects during VLDP. Participants attend a series of talks and workshops which aim to prepare them for project pitching session usually held on the final day of the programme.
