As we reach the halfway mark of 2025, we’re excited to share what our passionate and purpose-driven youths have been working on. From ideation to community engagement, the youths are not only imagining change—they're actively creating it.
Celebrating Youth Initiatives for Change
🫱🏼🫲🏿 Collaborating with Communities
Some of the teams have been actively engaging with community partners and stakeholders beyond the programme. These meaningful collaborations help them gain fresh perspectives, validate their ideas, and better align their initiatives with the needs on the ground. It’s heartening to see these youths take ownership of their learning, reaching out to experts and showing initiative beyond the classroom.
Project Unbottled
Project Unbottled continues to champion youth awareness and appreciation for the often-overlooked members of our community.
Earlier this April, in celebration of Labour Day, the team led a school-wide appreciation at Nan Hua High School. They mobilized student volunteers to handwrite personalized letters to every teaching and non-teaching staff member.
Beyond the school grounds, they actively run a youth-centered Instagram page that tackles important issues like racism and gender inequality. They post weekly to spark conversation and encourage a culture of kindness, inclusion, and awareness.
Project Seawing
Project Seawing is a youth-driven initiative raising awareness about the endangered hawksbill turtle. Through activities like the “Biodiversity Beach Patrol” along East Coast beaches and exhibit showcases, the team builds empathy and educates the public on marine conservation.
By bringing conservation into public spaces and combining fieldwork with storytelling, Project Seawing empowers youth voices in environmental action. Their momentum is a powerful reminder of how young people can catalyze real-world change for our oceans.
Project Hustle
Project Hustle had a collaborative initiative alongside St. Andrew's Junior School to promote physical activity in an inclusive and engaging way. The team designed a dual-component programme comprising at-home bonding exercises and a carnival-style recess activity to encourage consistent movement through fun and gamified experiences.
With inclusive games like Ball Toss, Tic-Tac-Toe Challenges, and a Memory Sprint, they created a lively, peer-supported environment that made fitness engaging. Their reward system, which included prizes like fitness trackers and goodie bags, further motivated students and demonstrated a clear understanding of behaviour-based encouragement. The team’s creativity and attention to impact, especially for less-active students, made their approach both meaningful and memorable.
💡 Diverse Projects, United by Purpose
While the themes and approaches differ, the projects all share a common thread—youth-led solutions for a better tomorrow. Exciting things are coming to you!
Stay tuned for more stories from our changemakers. If you're part of this journey as a mentor, partner, or friend, thank you for believing in the power of youth.
