This study examines the motivational factors influencing youth volunteerism in Malaysia, focusing on six key drivers: social, understanding, values, career, protective, and enhancement motivations. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 385 Malaysian youth volunteers and analyzed through structural equation modeling. The findings reveal that values, social, and enhancement motivations significantly influence youth volunteerism, while understanding, career, and protective motivations have no significant impact. Policy implications include designing volunteer programs that emphasize altruistic values and personal growth opportunities. These insights aim to foster sustained youth engagement in volunteerism, contributing to national development and social cohesion.
