Candlescape Foundation began during the pandemic, when we handmade “Secret Message Candles”, each with a hidden note of encouragement, to thank frontline healthcare workers. Today we use candle and scent-making to bring comfort and connection. We run therapeutic sessions for children with cancer and for seniors facing critical illness or dementia, with partners such as SingHealth and the President’s Challenge. We’re also building a handmade craft workplace where persons with disabilities hold creative, paid jobs.
