Influence: Yen-Lu Chow on making meaning from tragedy

Influence: Yen-Lu Chow on making meaning from tragedy

Meet some of Singapore's most impactful individuals in Influence with Michelle Martin.

If you are going through pain, sorrow or grief, trust that you are not alone

After losing his 26-year-old son Lawrance to manic depression, philanthropist Yen-Lu Chow set out to transform grief into action by founding - together with his wife - the Over The Rainbow Academy that helps parents with resources and which gives young people a platform to "just be heard". The academy aims to help transform the landscape of mental wellness in Singapore and offers scholarships for its training programmes.

Social innovator Yen-Lu Chow believes getting to a "we first society" starts with very important first step; caring for the self.

We ask: in a competitive world driven by individual success, can Singapore move from a “me-first” mindset to a “we-first” culture that protects its human capital?
