About KYS

A flagship of Alkhidmat Karachi, built by and for Karachi's youth.

Karachi Youth Summit (KYS) is a flagship initiative of Alkhidmat Karachi, created to bring together the city's students, young professionals, and — most importantly — the volunteers who power Alkhidmat Karachi's work across the city. Starting in 2026, KYS becomes an annual gathering: a full day of competitions, zone-based challenges, and community building at the Expo Centre Karachi.

Beyond the stage and the scoreboard, KYS is a volunteer engagement moment — a chance for Alkhidmat Karachi's youth volunteer network to run the show, welcome the city's brightest, and grow the movement for the year ahead.
