Change Alley Aerial Plaza

Singapore

The Change Alley Aerial Plaza was built of prefabricated rolled steel section frames, the material is not very visually evident. The architect, K.K. Tan & Associates, planned to keep a low profile within the environment of skyscrapers and exploit both the view of Marina Bay, and the pedestrian traffic in the area, hence the revolving tower and glass bridge. The aerial plaza is a result of the third sale of sites from the Urban Redevelopment Authority in 1970.

Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.”
Genesis 11:3-5

MALNOURISHED CHILDREN OUTREACH

ICM’s Malnourished Children Outreach (MCO) saves lives. In coordination with local government officials, ICM identifies ten severely underweight children in each community and provides them with a nutritious meal each day. At the end of four months, two-thirds of these children will have increased their weight by at least 15%, the threshold recommended by UNICEF. This MCO program has long lasting effects: five months after the completion of the feeding program, most of the children had at least maintained their weight gain.

Meals are prepared by the partnering host church community. The food is provided through ICM’s partnership with Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) and Kids Against Hunger (KAH), two US-based non-profit organizations. FMSC and KAH have together promised 19 forty-foot containers of “nutripacks”, which represents more than 5 million meals. Negros Navigation provides free shipping of the food from Manila to each of ICM’s bases.

In 2011/12, ICM is piloting a modified Transform-VHL course specifically for mothers of MCO children. The new curriculum emphasizes the nutritional needs of children and will be offered in 60 communities. www.caremin.com
