The Malaysian Buddhist Youth Foundation (YBBM) is organizing another big scale Maha Sanghika Dana on 18 July 2010 (Sunday) at Penang Times Square in Jalan Dato Keramat, Penang. In Buddhism, Maha Sanghika Dana is an act of providing alms-food to a group of homeless ordained people who had renounced the world (also known as the Sangha) in order to strive for peace and enlightenment through Buddha's teachings and guidance.
