Young advocate’s quest for Chay-nge

Chay: Even the smallest, tangible changes are capable of making a difference in people’s lives.

“IF you had the opportunity to give back to your community and put a smile on a child’s face, why not take it?” said Benjamin Chay Wen Jun, urging more youths to play a role in advocacy work.

When presented with the chance to do just that through Unicef’s Young Leaders Programme (YLP) two years ago, the Kuala Lumpur youth seized it and has never looked back since.
