With over 39 years of youth outreach experience targeted at the ages of 12 to 35, the People’s Association Youth Movement (PAYM) is a leading youth organisation that is led by the youths for the youths. Opportunities are aplenty for every PAYM member to practise and appreciate active citizenry, community awareness and social cohesiveness through our myriad of exciting activities and insightful programmes that answers to the diverse needs of today’s youths.
Through their involvement as volunteers or participants in these programmes, the PAYM members are given networking opportunities to interact and exchange experiences with their fellow peers from the multi-cultural backgrounds that Singapore is part of. Not only do these opportunities provide a holistic learning experience through hands-on opportunities on community involvement, it also strengthens social bonds and cultivates a sense of national ownership and belonging amongst the communities.
This communal bonding is further reinforced at the various Community Clubs/Centres (CCs), where there is a PAYM @ your doorstep, bringing ease and accessibility for volunteering and participating. Altogether, there are 99 Youth Executive Committees (YECs) run by dedicated volunteers that will ensure programmes and activities are always current and innovative for one and all.
