Community
Initiatives
BERNAS supports communities through initiatives that respond to real needs and create long-term value. From children’s nutrition to education, welfare, and community care, these efforts reflect BERNAS’ responsibility to grow together with the people it serves.
PROMAK
Nourishing Growth, One Meal at a Time
Introduced in January 2022, Program Makanan Kesihatan (PROMAK) supports the nutritional needs of underprivileged students through daily school meals. Led by Yayasan Albukhary in collaboration with BERNAS Group, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Health, PROMAK helps provide consistent, nutritious meals that support children’s wellbeing, focus, and long-term development.

IKHLAS
Extending Care Where It Is Needed Most
IKHLAS reflects BERNAS’ commitment to support communities in meaningful and lasting ways. Through food assistance, education support, welfare initiatives, and community engagement, IKHLAS helps uplift lives, provide care during hardship, and strengthen the sense of shared responsibility across Malaysia.
Supporting Communities in Need
BERNAS continues a long-standing tradition of contributing to charitable causes across Malaysia, including the distribution of rice and essential supplies during floods and times of hardship — helping communities through challenging moments.
Investing in Education
Education remains a key pillar in shaping future generations. Support is extended through initiatives such as Albukhary International University, a waqf-based institution funded by the Albukhary Foundation, along with scholarships that open doors for underprivileged students to pursue higher learning.
Celebrating Culture and Togetherness
In a diverse society, shared moments bring people closer. Through visits to old-age homes, engagements with children in orphanages, and the celebration of festive occasions, IKHLAS helps foster connection, joy, and a sense of belonging.
Through these efforts, what is given goes beyond essentials — it carries care, dignity, and a shared sense of humanity that continues to bring people together.
