SeedYourChange is for anyone — individuals, ground-ups, or organisations — who wants to contribute positively to their community. You don't need prior experience or a big idea to get started.

What can I do on this site?

There are a few ways to get involved. If you are looking for inspiration, browse community stories of Singaporeans who have made a difference. If you are ready to commit, make a pledge to take one positive action. And if you have an initiative for community good, you can submit a partnership proposal to explore how SGPO can support you.

Seed Your Change

Meet the people whose stories will help you #SeedYourChange

Meet the changemakers who've partnered with the government to shape Singapore's future. From sustainability champions to youth mentors, their stories show how collaboration seeds meaningful impact.

When life gets tough, whether it's health problems, money worries, or family stress, we help each other out.

Yu Poh Leng (60-for-60 Aqua Fitness)

At 60, breast cancer survivor Yu Poh Leng set out to celebrate SG60 by helping others stay active.

She launched the 60-for-60 Aqua Fitness project and led aqua fitness classes for seniors. With support from SGPO, Poh Leng received funding, secured a venue with SportSG, and partnered youth volunteers to document the journey.

Today, her classes continue as part of regular programming, as she steps up as an ActiveSG coach.

Because for Poh Leng, it’s never too late to start and to help others move forward together.

Samuel Lim (Fire City Gym)

At 44, gym founder Samuel Lim set out to make fitness truly inclusive — opening his doors to visually impaired individuals at no cost.

He launched weekly sessions at Fire City Gym in Kampong Bugis, welcoming participants ranging from their 20s to 60s, with volunteers by their side. With support from SGPO, Mr Lim applied for funding under the SG Partnerships Fund to sustain and grow the programme.

What began as a small group of seven has since grown to 30 participants — some of whom have gone on to complete competitive runs like the 2XU 10km Compression Run.

Because for Mr Lim, fitness has no barriers — and every gym should open its doors to persons with disabilities.

Learning new things, helping our kids succeed, and building connections with our neighbours so we all get better together.

Kay & Kaizen (Little Hands Big Hearts SG)

Kay (9) and Kaizen (7) believe you’re never too young to make a difference.

With their parents, they started Little Hands, Big Hearts SG, bringing children and families together through monthly missions, with support from SGPO.

They’ve designed fire safety posters for HDB lift lobbies, thanked firefighters with handmade gifts, connected families and seniors through cake pop workshops, and organised a beach clean-up.

With more projects ahead, they’re showing that small acts of kindness can bring a community closer together.

Lydia Susiyanti (Lydia’s Breakfast Buddy)

Lydia, 37, set out to make every child in her neighbourhood feel full and valued.

She founded Lydia's Breakfast Buddy, offering free breakfasts to children at her void deck, regardless of their background. What started as a small gesture quickly grew through word-of-mouth, more than doubling its participants over 16 sessions, with two other parents stepping up to volunteer and contribute food.

Today, the morning void deck spot has become a place where children gather, share stories, and form friendships before the school day begins.

Because for Lydia, a simple breakfast is about so much more. It's about building a community where every child belongs.

Making sure our homes and neighbourhoods have what we need, from affordable housing to good transport to places for our families to thrive.

Yasser (Stridy)

Yasser Amin is the Chief Stridy Officer at Stridy, rallying communities to care for the spaces they use every day.

From beaches to neighbourhood parks and even void decks, he shows that clean-ups can start anywhere, by anyone. Through Stridy, simple actions become opportunities to educate, connect, and inspire change. From engaging seniors to mobilising volunteers across Singapore, Yasser is building a culture of shared responsibility.

Johny Tan (Boon Lay Clean-up project)

Johny Tan, 40, set out to get his Boon Lay neighbours to care for their shared spaces and for one another.

He founded the Boon Lay Clean-up Project, supported by the Love Our 'Hood Fund, bringing residents together for regular litter-picking sessions across the estate. Inspired by the Clean Pod initiative in Fernvale, he set up a station where residents can easily access litter-picking tools, decorated by children from the community and turned into a piece of neighbourhood art.

Today, the project draws participants aged 10 to 75, with youth and children from the neighbourhood joining in on weekly clean-ups, and up to 50 residents gathering for bi-monthly sessions.

Because for Johny, a cleaner estate is about more than just picking up litter. It's about building a neighbourhood where everyone plays a part.
