Enriching Communities through YTL’s Social Impact:

Building Futures Through Volunteerism

ABOUT THIS SESSION

Volunteerism is a powerful tool for community transformation, and YTL Foundation is proud to partner with EPIC Homes to bring this meaningful opportunity to LEAD 2024. This workshop will highlight how, together, we can create lasting impact by volunteering our time, skills, and resources to build homes for Orang Asli (OA) communities in Malaysia. This session will showcase stories of hope and resilience from EPIC’s ongoing work. With the support of Malaysia government's matching initiative, every home we build through volunteer efforts is matched by the government, amplifying the difference we can make. Join us to discover how you can be part of this volunteer-driven initiative and make a lasting difference in the lives of those who need it most.
