The article discusses a new resource developed by the Australian Red Cross called the Y Challenge, a highly flexible community service program for young people. This was launched on World Red Cross Day on May 8, 2008. The Y Challenge program aims to give young people the opportunity to contribute to the community, develop and carry out a community project with others and develop practical project management skills under the guidance of a mentor. Examples of a Y Challenge project are also noted.
