On 30 April 2026, Art for Good had the meaningful opportunity to be part of Lazada For Good Day — a day centred on giving back and making a positive impact in the community. As part of the event, we were engaged to conduct a hands-on creative workshop where participants came together to build wooden gliders. Over the course of the session, a total of 13 gliders were carefully crafted, each one uniquely assembled and decorated. While simple in form, these gliders carried a deeper purpose. Each piece created during the workshop was intended to be gifted to children from low-income families — transforming the act of making into an act of giving. Participants were encouraged to slow down, work with intention, and reflect on the joy their creations would bring to someone else. The workshop also highlighted the power of art as a connector. In a shared space, individuals from different backgrounds engaged in a collective experience — creating not just objects, but moments of empathy, generosity, and community spirit. At Art for Good, we believe that art can be a powerful tool for social impact. Initiatives like this remind us that even small, hands-on activities can create ripples of kindness and meaningful connection. We are grateful to have been part of Lazada For Good Day and to everyone who contributed their time, energy, and creativity. Together, we created something simple, thoughtful, and impactful — one glider at a time.

Sharings From Our Past Interns Krishna Remote Intern March 2026 - May 2026 My journey with Art For Good, while challenging due to personal factors, was not just a regular internship. It was extremely impactful and insightful, helping me upskill, explore new avenues and much more, making my semester break time meaningful. At Art for Good, a social enterprise rooted in creativity and care, I found myself working closely with the incredibly skilled and compassionate founder and team. What began as a professional opportunity quickly unfolded into something far more meaningful. Every conversation, brainstorming session, and quiet moment of observation revealed the depth of intention behind their work, how art could gently hold space for healing, how systems were thoughtfully designed to reach those who needed it most. It was thrilling to witness ideas transform into impact, and even more inspiring to be trusted as a small part of that journey. As a therapist in training, this helped me understand the humongous responsibility that comes with running a private practice. The self-directed and gently guided format of internship also reminded me of the importance of open communication and professionalism. I also genuinely appreciate how accommodating and understanding the team was of my personal challenges that I was experiencing at the time. This was also a good reminder of how life happens, and as I grow into the professional I aspire to be, it is important to handle crises more effectively and efficiently. Behind the scenes, I discovered that meaningful change is never accidental, it is built through patience, empathy, and precision. Contributing to the development of an art-based therapy introductory toolkit gave me insight into the delicate balance between psychology and creativity, while my involvement in event organisation, website management, and communication taught me the nuances of professionalism and collaboration. I learned that etiquette is not just about formality, but also about respect, and communication is not just about clarity, but also about connection. Most importantly, this experience deepened my empathy not as an abstract concept, but as a daily practice. This internship didn’t just expand my skill set, it reshaped how I see impact, reminding me that sometimes, the most powerful change begins quietly, with intention and heart. I would like to conclude by wishing the very best and expressing my love and sincere gratitude to the current team, upcoming interns, and artists. Thank you! Tracy To Marketing and Admin Intern Lunaris Internship Programme Jan 2022 - Sep 2022 Hi, I'm from HK and this overseas WFH experience has truly been an invaluable one. My duty includes social media, website updates, e-newsletters, email campaigns, SOP doc updates, and other ad-hocs. Searching for an internship for my uni course in Creative Industries, this internship turned out to be more meaningful and rewarding than I thought. It was amazing when my post for Junkai (our artist) went viral that his artworks got sold immediately. I was also given spaces to contribute new ideas based on my Comms knowledge and my last internship. Apart from gaining insights into SG's culture, I'm also equipped with practical skills in social media and website editing. It is my honour to join this meaningful journey at Art for Good. Rachel Tee Majulah Volunteer May 2021 - Aug 2021 My internship experience at Art for Good was an extremely insightful and fulfilling one, enabling me to learn many practical skill sets while doing good. I was given the opportunity to help with running various aspects of Art for Good’s daily operations such as social media publicity and volunteer management, and implementing new initiatives that aim to use art to empower children with disabilities. During my internship, I learnt how to design, launch and promote public fundraising campaigns and email blasts to garner public support and donations for our causes of helping underprivileged children through art. As a social media manager, I learnt about how to portray an organisation’s brand image, reach out, and grow an organisation’s community, and conduct online advocacy for our causes. I am extremely thankful for having been able to work with Art for Good and its team and look forward to our continued collaboration to do good through art. Jerlynn Yap Republic Polytechnic Jun - Aug 2019 This internship has provided me with many opportunities, where I have gained experience that helps me both professionally and personally. By helping out behind the scenes for events and handling the website requirements, gave me insight to how such organisations are being managed. One of my experiences was that I had first-hand contact with the beneficiaries like special needs children and underprivileged children. Previously, I have done volunteering work for underprivileged elderly, but helping the children gave me a different vibe as the children are active and constantly smiling. For these experiences, I am very grateful to have worked with Art for Good. Zeneith Yee Lithan Academy PCP Program Nov 2017 - Jul 2018 My Internship with Art for Good provided me opportunities to handle tasks which I would not have imagined myself to learn. Not being very IT Savvy, helping with the back end of the website was daunting in the beginning. However, I got to learn many things just from handling the backend of the website as I navigated and familiarised with the system. Handling the Social Media design and posts, I feel more confident with myself and handling my tasks as the days go by. Knowing more about the Social Enterprise Model gave me a different view on how we could use art to improve the lives of others. Most importantly, art improves mental health and improves well being. All in all, my internship with Art for Good allowed me to learn and experience new things and I am thankful for the opportunity given by Art for Good! Sean Yew Project Manager Lithan Academy PCP Program Nov 2017 - Jul 2018 I had the opportunity to learn about managing a micro business, particularly a social enterprise that works closely with various partners, ranging from government to non-government organizations, educational institutions as well as corporate entities. Art for Good also focuses on employee development, as I was a beneficiary of the Professional Conversion Programme, a 9-month course which equipped me with digital marketing skills to boost the company’s marketing efforts. Catholic High School Entrepreneurship Program Learning Journey 6 July 2018 Catholic High students visited our Art Outreach program location where our founder Amanda Chen shared about Art For Good as an arts social enterprise.

Riverside Secondary School Learning Journey 19 September 2018 Riverside Secondary School students came for their learning journey at our Art Outreach program location where our founder Amanda Chen shared about Art for Good as an arts social enterprise.

Two of the students left their cards behind for Art For Good to encourage us to continue what we are doing and use art to do more good! CIP Project with Students from ITE 1-18 November 2018 With special thanks to Nurin Najwa Binti Amran, Ang Zheng Quan Dion, Cheng Qi Ting Joanna, Lina Li Yuan, Nick Bryan Tan, Tan Xuan Xin Dulcie! 6 students from ITE volunteered with Art for Good to organise their own art fundraising program with underprivileged children by making and selling keychains at our Christmas booth. They drew and coloured the keychains in our classroom together with the beneficiaries from our Art Outreach program. The students then brought them back home to microwave and attach the keychain parts. The children from our Art Outreach program got to keep two keychains while the rest were sold at our booth. Keychains are also available on our online shop! Interview for Research Project with Students from Kangnam University 7 January 2020 A group of Korean students from Kangnam University visited Singapore to do research on Social Enterprises in Singapore.

Our Tampines Hub, Let’s Make Art at Gate 7, promotes creating art together as a family. Why Parent-Child Bonding Matters for Emotional Wellbeing Parenting is not just about providing, it is about nurturing wellbeing through a strong parent-child bond, and art can play a powerful role in this journey. Quality time rooted in creativity helps children feel emotionally secure, forming what psychologists call a “secure base” for life. Research consistently shows that when families engage in art together, it strengthens the parent-child bond and supports emotional wellbeing, shaping how children build trust, regulate emotions, and relate to the world around them. In these shared moments, art becomes more than an activity, it becomes a language of connection. The impact of a strong parent-child bond on wellbeing extends beyond the individual child to the entire family system, and art offers a natural bridge for this connection. Families that engage in creative art practices together often experience better communication, reduced conflict, and deeper empathy. Through collaborative art, children and parents co-create meaning, reinforcing emotional safety and mutual respect. This strengthens the parent-child bond while promoting holistic wellbeing, making everyday interactions more supportive and harmonious. RDSS Art Jamming Event for Families The Role of Art in Strengthening Parent-Child Bond and Family Wellbeing A powerful example of this emerged during an art workshop, where a non-verbal child, their neurotypical sibling, and their parents came together to explore creativity. Initially hesitant, the family slowly began engaging through colors and textures, allowing art to guide their interaction. The non-verbal child expressed emotions through painting, while the sibling mirrored and supported, creating a shared visual story. In that moment, the parent-child bond deepened as the parents began to understand their child beyond words, enhancing emotional wellbeing for everyone involved. This experience highlighted how art can transcend communication barriers and foster genuine connection within the parent-child bond. Creative collaboration through art is not just an activity, it is an investment in long-term wellbeing and a stronger parent-child bond. Workshops that center art provide families with a safe, engaging space to connect, communicate, and grow together. These shared experiences nurture empathy, patience, and joy, all essential for emotional wellbeing.  Families are often encouraged to create art together, creating visual memories of their shared bond. Join Us For Our Parent-Child Bonding Art Workshop If you are looking to strengthen your parent-child bond, wait no more. Now is the time to explore the transformative power of art.
