Empowering Young Community Leaders today and for the future.

Welcome!

Young Australian Leaders Ltd, formerly known as Youth Community Service Award Alumni Ltd is a support network for young people awarded by the NSW Branch of the Order of Australia Association who have been recognised for their service and commitment to the community.

This organisation was established for those honoured since 1993 in an Award initiated by Dr John Lincoln AM. The Award, which has been conducted annually for 28 years, is given to nominated senior school students across New South Wales to recognise those who had undertaken exemplary service to the wider community. These young people have great skills and have shown resilience and compassion in their service to others.

This Award was formally established with a vision to support and offer education to these Awardees who are destined to be Australia’s future community and business leaders. At each of the Award Ceremonies 2017-2021 (no Awards in 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions) the Awardees, with their parents, were briefed on the plans to establish the Company and invited to join this exciting new initiative. It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
