Volunteering

Introduction

Ceylon Youth Organaisation is a youth-led initiative dedicated to fostering civic engagement and community development in Sri Lanka. Through a two-fold approach, we aim to empower young people to drive positive change in their communities. The first element of our initiative involves hosting regular forums where youth come together to discuss pressing issues and propose initiatives to address them. The second element entails organizing volunteer programs to implement these initiatives and contribute to tangible improvements on the ground.
