Propelling the Next Gen

Our youth are ever-exploring, ever-reaching, ever-evolving. To help them realise their potential, SINDA has a carefully-tailored range of programmes. Through motivation, imparting of values and teaching of skills, these offer youngsters the support they need, while opening their eyes to the endless possibilities available to them.

What we’ve seen are youths who thrive in positive peer circles, and who have matured into confident and capable adults.

They spur each other on, too. Under the SINDA Youth Club, future leaders are embarking on journeys of self-discovery, anchored in sustained training programmes and mentoring schemes. They have the big picture in mind, already debating and seeking solutions to national and community-focused issues.

As they take the bit between their teeth, there’s one thing our youths are assured of: SINDA’s commitment to their success.

Having a Voice

Through her STEP tuition classes, Yesha learnt about and attended Camp Arise, where mentors left a deep impression. The formerly shy and reserved teen consequently sought new experiences through other SINDA youth programmes.

A SINDA Peer Leadership alumnus, Yesha was endorsed as 2021 SINDA Youth Valedictorian, and has been advocating for the Indian community as a Youth Advisory Group member of the Ministry of Social and Family Development. She is currently pursuing a Diploma in Early Childhood Development & Education at Ngee Ann Polytechnic.

“I blossomed through SINDA’s programmes and now I’m very proud to represent the Indian community at a national level. I hope to harness the skills I have learnt to help other youths and motivate them to give back to the community.”

Kamakshi Ravikumar Yesha, 19
