UpCycling Plus: Crafting with purpose

‘Cheap or beautiful goods can be found everywhere, but it’s harder to find something personalized or that you really like.’ It is normal to pay for the things you want, but have you ever paid to DIY something you like? Edward Wong founded Luckwalker a few years ago and devotes himself to making metal accessories. He believes that every DIY product is unique and the efforts expended can’t be measured in money as making your own product is way more meaningful than buying a finished product.

Project Highlight

MakerBay sharing - Kids4kids

We’ve had the pleasure to be invited by Kids4kids to host a workshop during their ‘Powered by Youth’ forum. We shared a bit about MakerBay’s journey, and we talked about how we work with youth to develop solutions for the environment. It was inspiring to see so many of them eager to tackle environmental issues.

We’re really looking forward to seeing the development of the 5 winning projects!

$500 will allow us to provide a full day impact innovation workshop for one youth, during which they will develop an impactful prototype to solve a given problem.

Through the workshops, the youths can strengthen their technical and soft skills:

Combine these skills with design thinking and the youth can create solutions to address real social and environmental issues. Please support us and empower the next generation of innovators!
