The first congress of the Karelo-Finnish Komsomol was held 1st to 3rd June, 1940. The conference elected a Central Committee, with Yuri Andropov as its First Secretary (until 1944). During the Continuation War (part of WWII), the Central Committee of the Karelo-Finnish Komsomol organized partisan resistance against the Finnish occupying forces, both in urban and rural areas, but also mostly against civilians in Finland.

    In total seven congresses of the Karelo-Finnish Komsomol were held. It published the newspaper Leninin nuori seuraaja/Юные ленинцы (Young Lenin's Follower) and Nuori bolsevikki/Молодой большевик (Young Bolshevik).
