How are things being made from scratch, ground up?
Back in February 2022, freelance writer Eugenia Tan collaborated with us to create a novel, community-based theatre piece, โFrom Scratch, Ground Upโ. Supported by National Arts Council Singaporeโs Self-Employed Person Grant (SEPG), the play presented a new perspective of the natural space and inspired reflections on the relationship between artmaking and sustainability. ๐ฑ

Today at Pelatok Park, led by TouchWood GUI, we celebrate children and people with joyful craft and farm activities that are good for the earth and good for us. Once again, we are grateful to Changi-Simei CC for this opportunity.
The residents were also able to harvest again from the Art Farm, a project by Changi-Simei CC, SUTD Singapore University of Technology & Design, SAA Architects (Surbana Jurong Group) & Changi General Hospital (CGH).

Last week, Eli completed her 7 months with us as part of a National Youth Council Singapore programme. We are very grateful for her.
Many of the beautiful digital artwork and content that you can see across our social media platforms have been thought of and done up by her. Eli is super talented. Did you know, she flew Singapore's flag in The Voice of China and was on ๅจๆฐๅซ Jay Chou's team! The whole community wishes her well, as she continues her beautiful singing journey!

A few weeks ago, Bureau Veritas Group rolled up their sleeve and came to GUI for a CSR / teambuilding experience. They were exposed to the amount of wood waste in Singapore. Led by TouchWood GUI, the team took action and upcycled disposed pallets, turning waste wood into a bench. This bench will be given as a gift to the residents of St Andrew's Nursing Home. ๐

It is important to take a break. Our EO team walked from Kent Ridge Park to Bukit Chandu to Labrador Park. We are very thankful to this team. Week after week they fill the community's tummy with food and love.
The Earth Oven is a very beautiful story of how the community came together to build and power an idea (no grants no sponsorship hor). This community is made up of people from all walks of life. They place-make and place-keep, not easy!
Join them in the Earth Oven workshops here;

People make GUI. Friends close to us would be familiar with scenes like this. At GUI, when it rains, it pours! Yesterday, we hosted 182 students from Elias Park Primary School.
The sky opened just as they were about to board their buses. One by one, members of GUI lined up with umbrellas to create a cover walkway to the bus. We hope we will never lose this spirit of the people as GUI works hard to balance our mission with financial stability.
