The Half Brick Conference, Singapore

Thanks to The Half Brick for inviting me to speak at their Singapore Conference. Humbled to be the youngest speaker among a cast of leading social entrepreneurs and change agents!

First major contribution to Daughters of Tomorrow, Singapore

On the 24th of March, Atoms to Mountains presented its first major contribution to Daughters Of Tomorrow, as a part of their book launch event "Dreams of our Daughters" to commemorate International Women’s Month. 

A high-impact beginning

• Atoms to Mountains' contribution of $3500 was matched by the Singapore govt Tote Board (https://www.toteboard.gov.sg/), making the effective contribution $7000

• This is enough to support 14 women with emergency housing, 70 women with child-minding support, or 350 women with work transportation or mobile connectivity.

• Our contribution was 11 times the average contribution amount of their overall campaign

• The event was attended by the minister of State for Social and Family Development Ms. Sun Xueling, who emphasized the crucial role of donors in the success of social missions. 

• As part of the event, I had the privilege to meet inspirational women leaders such as Ms. Fannie Lim, Executive Director of DOT, and Ms. Zubaida Ali, the author of the book “Dreams of our Daughters” – who reaffirmed my core values of compassion, agency and believing in the "power of one".

• I also heard first-hand the stories of 4 of the women featured in the book, who were present at the event - which gave me a sense of renewed purpose for my project.
