The Importance of Community Development Projects
If we give the learners the opportunity to take an active role in some community development
projects and programs, we are giving them an avenue to hone their academic and life skills, and at the
same time, a chance to create a positive impact to the society, making life better to all the members of the
community.

Along with the act of serving the community, there are benefits that learners can enjoy while engaging
in these activities:

1. Self-Satisfaction. Participating community service especially when you are interested with the
program can help you feel good about yourself because you are reaching out and helping others.
2. Social Responsibility. Engaging oneself to any community services can let a learner be more
aware on one’s role and responsibility in their community. It increases the chance of camaraderie
among the people in the community while living in harmony.
3. Enhancement of Personal Knowledge: Exposure to community service can lead to
enhancement of oneself especially their interpersonal and communication skills while gaining and
growing from their experience.

Different Community and Youth Development Projects

The following are just some of the different community and youth development projects that you
can organize that will surely create a positive impact in our society:

1. Feeding program – Apparently malnutrition is still a major problem in the world, more so in
our country. It is a heartbreaking fact that there are families that struggle to feed their kids with
healthy meals. Organizing a feeding program in depressed area in your community would be of
great help, particularly if you would do it regularly and monitor its impact to the weights and
nutrition level of the children.
2. Gift-giving program –Gift-giving is one community development projects you can do to make
other people happy, particularly those who are suffering with illness in hospitals, the grandparents
in the elderly care centers and the street children. We can never tell how great the positive
impact it will bring to this world when we do such simple act of kindness.
3. Tree planting –Tree planting project helps transplant trees in their permanent position. This
activity will foster environmental stewardship among learners and help the community to restore
and protect its natural resources.
4. Clean and green drive –A community service of cleaning the streets, planting trees and
promoting the urban gardening in cities, would really contribute to the protection of environment,
and more comfortable and sustainable living.
 5. Mga Laro ng Lahi – Nowadays, seldom that we see children playing the traditional games of
our country called as “Mga Laro ng Lahi.” These games include the following: Agawan-base;
Dama; Karera ng Sako; Langit-lupa; Luksong-baka; Patintero; Piko; Tumbang preso;
Tsato/syato and a lot more. Sponsoring an activity like this will not only stimulate the mental
and physical aspect of the children, but it will also promote the Filipino culture when it comes to
children’s games.
