Mya Benway Facts
- A multifaceted talent, Mya had been the captain of her high school’s tennis team for 2 years in succession. This ran almost in parallel with her growing fame on YouTube and Instagram and highlighted the fact that she could pursue 2 different passions without compromising on either, in terms of time or devotion.
- From January 2016 to January 2020, she had also served as the media director of the local chapter of Youth in Government, a program in the United States that lets high school students serve in ‘model governments’ at the local, state, national, or international levels.
- She often participates in charitable activities and has volunteered for organizations such as Feed My Starving Children and The Humane Society of the United States. The former coordinates the distribution of food to people in developing nations and Mya had volunteered for them several times during her high school days. The latter aims to raise awareness about animal welfare and prevent animal-related cruelties and she had helped the local chapter of the organization several times by taking care of the puppies and kittens that they had rescued.
- In March 2020, she had started an online initiative titled ‘Prom at Home’ through which she had encouraged youngsters around the country to celebrate the school event at their homes, with their families, because of the global coronavirus outbreak. She had also posted an elaborate video, later that month, that depicted her doing the same.
