Over the past year, Gensler has focused efforts in our communities into four overarching themes: the Next Generation, Housing and Homelessness, Health and Wellness, and the Environment. Through the Gensler Model for Community Impact, our colleagues are empowered to align their professional skills with community-based initiatives, resulting in a far greater chance of having a tangible, positive impact in our communities.
Specifically in the Gensler Singapore Office, we focused on the themes “Housing & Homelessness” and “Health and Wellness” over the past year. We partnered with many non-profit organizations such as Singapore Association for Mental Health (SAMH), Helping Joy Limited, Lighthouse Club and HealthServe.
Some of our projects and volunteer initiatives are as follows:
SAMH Space2Connect
Gensler’s partnership with SAMH began with a shared vision of promoting mental health and well-being in the community. As a team, we were dedicated to providing support and expertise in designing the SAMH Space2Connect and ensure that our design solutions aligned with their mission to create a safe space for the community.
HelpingJoy
Gensler’s donation and involvement in the goodie bag distribution at Chai Chee Road was a collaborative effort that brought together not only our Gensler colleagues but also our extended network of family and friends. The initiative aimed to bring joy and support to the residents of Chai Chee Road.
