Empowering high-schoolers like you to do good.
Youth 4 Difference is flipping youth volunteering on its head – no more boring ‘bring a gold coin’ or giving money for mufti days.
We want to bring together you and your friends (and some people you might not know!) and make a difference to our local community.
Fun
Have fun and chill at our events, and do something that’s actually exciting for once!
Friends
Bring along your friends, or make new ones! We’re welcoming of everyone in high school!
Service
Feel good about yourself and give back to our local community, whether by being in fundraisers, or in bush/beach cleanups!
What do we do?
Right now, volunteering for teenagers, especially in Australia, is boring. We’ve been through too many unrewarding mufti days and BBQ’s to know this. Volunteering is inconvenient and awkward, often feeling more like a chore than something fun to actually spend the weekend doing.
We are organising volunteering events for teenagers in Sydney, Australia to give back to our local community to have fun. Youth 4 Difference holds events every 2-4 weeks at around Sunday, to fit around students’ schedules. Our events often include beach cleanups, tree plantings and fun runs. We also try to join other charities’ events where possible to be able to expand our impact.
Who are we?
We are a group of high-schoolers around different parts of Sydney (North Shore, Western Sydney, Inner West) between Years 9 and 12. We’re passionate about creating real change in our local community and helping more people see how rewarding volunteering can be.
