On this podcast, we’ve moved away from direct features of charities and social service agencies, not only because there are so many with interesting stories, but also because a greater focus on systemic trends and structural solutions – involving multiple parties – feels more productive. Nevertheless, the story of Glyph Community (https://www.glyphcommunity.com/) and one of its founders, Lim Si Hui, was very compelling.
Glyph is a charity offering non-academic enrichment programmes to disadvantaged children, and 26-year-old Si Hui herself dropped out of university to work at and manage Glyph full-time. Given her young age, leading a direct-service charity, I was interested in how she managed staff and volunteers, challenges she’s faced, and how she navigated the broader social work and social service space in Singapore as a young leader.
