Wear a leaf, a sun, a lemon or a cloud to support youth mental health programmes by the Singapore Association of Mental Health (SAMH). SAMH has launched its second bracelet collection in partnership with The Mindful Company (TMC), a Singapore-based jewellery brand, to help raise funds for the organisation’s programmes specifically YouthReach and Creative Services.
The collection is inspired by the personal stories of youth clients from YouthReach, a recovery programme for youths with mental health issues, and represents the four themes that arise from these stories – new beginnings, growth, dreams and turning challenges into opportunities. Called the ‘What’s Important Series II’, the bracelets seek to normalise conversations on mental illness, especially among young adults.
The bracelets are individually made with hypoallergenic, tarnish and corrosion-resistant stainless steel. The rose gold bracelets are plated in 18K rose gold with anti-tarnish coatings. Priced at S$39, S$10 from the sale of every bracelet will go to SAMH. The meaning behind the symbols include: The leaf, a symbol of growth and change; the sun, a reminder that it’s never too late to start new beginnings; the lemon is to make the best of the challenges that life throws you (the saying “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade”); and the cloud, a symbol of your dreams and aspirations.
The collection is on sale through The Mindful Company’s website HERE.
