YLA 2020
A brief summary of our YLA 2020 programme

Bajet Bento (YLA 2020 Winning Team)
Bajet Bento’s mission is to empower the underprivileged to achieve financial security and uplift lives through entrepreneurship and food.
During the course of their YLA run, Bajet Bento provided 1180 meals for children and generated over RM3.6k for underprivileged families. They were able to achieve this by selling over 500 bentos, gaining over RM5k in revenue. This could not have been possible without the support of additional support from their partners and volunteers. Within a short amount of time, they also found ways to utilize both online and offline marketing methods to reach new audiences.
The YLA 2020 cohort was greatly inspired by incredibly dedicated and passionate leaders in Malaysia
