The Red Pencil Humanitarian Mission

The Red Pencil aims to bring the benefits of arts therapy to individuals from children to adults, as a pathway to emotional balance and wellbeing. The Red Pencil addresses those facing overwhelming life circumstances such as long-term hospitalization, trauma, disabilities, natural disasters or civil conflicts. By expressing their trauma through the creative process of the arts (drawing, painting, music, drama and dance), children and families experience a sense of self-restoration, inner-recovery, peace and healing. In Singapore, The Red Pencil does clinical work in family centers, homes and schools, with a particular focus on low-income families. The Red Pencil (Singapore) has a Institution of Public Character (IPC) status that allows a 250% tax rebate on all donations made for beneficiaries in Singapore. The Red Pencil also runs arts therapy humanitarian missions and programmes from its offices in Geneva and Brussels. More information about our Singapore and overseas programmes: www.redpencil.org
