After Finishing the Personal Development (PD) course, many participants are inspired to form Volunteer Youth Club (VYCs). The clubs are supported with technical advice from the Youth Empowerment Unit (YEU). The clubs aim to exchange knowledge and information with villagers through workshops, discussion groups, dialogue and campaigns. The activities also help youth learn real situation of the communities and local administration and governance.

Before the grant launching, YRDP always provide an orientation club capacity building on Proposal Writing and once the club are selected to be funded, they will be supported with other 3 capacity buildings on Training for Trainer, Monitoring and Evaluation, and Report writing, trained and shared by YRDP alumni or former club members. All club members are also engaged to participate in other social and volunteered works as the organizing committees, speakers, and participants.
