The research employed a quantitative approach with a causal associative design. The study population consisted of Pemuda Pelopor registered in the 2023 program of the Ministry of Youth and Sports (Kemenpora), with a sample of 120 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed with SPSS version 26, including validity and reliability tests, multiple linear regression, as well as F-test and t-test analyses. The results revealed that: (1) youth participation has a positive and significant effect on social contribution; (2) youth leadership has a positive and significant effect on social contribution; and (3) youth participation and youth leadership simultaneously have a significant effect on the social contribution of Pemuda Pelopor. These findings reinforce Social Participation Theory and Transformational Leadership Theory, emphasizing that active involvement and visionary leadership play crucial roles in fostering awareness and collective social action among youth.
