The Youth Company (TYC) has launched its first Ramadan campaign to engage its young members in a number of activities during the Holy Month.
The activities will not only engage the youth to develop a healthy mindset, but also help keep them occupied in a recreational way.
It is also expected that the campaign will teach the youth the value of life by understanding the difficulties that others face.
Following its mission and vision of empowering the youth, TYC has organised different activities - such as Garangao, Iftar and a movie night with the elderly - for the youth to volunteer in so as to reach out to those who are unable to enjoy the festivities.
Also, as part of its rewarding programme, the TYC has organised a potluck Iftar for members participating in the Ramadan activities.
“Awareness of cultural diversity among youth is a very important factor that we strive to promote among our members. As part of our YOU in Action Programme (volunteering programme), we have decided to not only provide the members with a voluntary experience, but also help them understand the culture much better. This will ensure the development of their mindset as future leaders,” said Abdulrahman Sajid, youth empowerment and success services director at TYC International.
Besides, as part of providing a platform for talent development, TYC is organising a Ramadan photography competition for its members under the theme of “Youth and Ramadan”. The winner will be chosen through a voting session on the social media site, Facebook, and awarded with a prize worth QR1,500.
