The JCI Legacy

77 Years ofDeveloping Leaders.

Powered by JCI Singapore, TOYP is the national chapter of a global movement dedicated to personal and leadership development. Since 1948, JCI has shaped the next generation of civic leaders, entrepreneurs, and changemakers.

TOYP is not simply an award. It is a declaration that extraordinary impact can emerge from the quietest corners of society—from the classroom, the community kitchen, the startup garage.
