Ground Up Initiatives

Kidleidoscope (stems from the word “kids” and “kaleidoscope") is a SMU student community service initiative started in 2013 as part of the University's Local Community Service Projects. Since then, the student committee has been working with various partners to provides more opportunities for kids from underprivileged communities to help them build on their social competencies. 

Kidleidoscope aims to inspire disadvantaged children to pursue their dreams by instilling confidence in them through fun and interactive activities facilitated by our student volunteers. Through arts and crafts, the kids can build social skills like confidence and resilience. 

The What's Good in the Hood (WGITH) project aims to highlight various community projects in Singapore that helps to create a more vibrant, just, and inclusive society. The project collects stories of service done in the community, for the community and by the community with the aim to spotlight various community service models within Singapore.
