Malaysia’s microplastics crisis is worsening, driven by domestic waste, weak recycling and everyday plastic use. Experts warn it is no longer a future risk but an ongoing environmental emergency damaging marine ecosystems and contaminating seafood.

Unboxing Goodness: A Harvest of Hope & Abundance 🍊✨

We are thrilled to unveil another wonderful collaboration with Chin Hin Property, ushering in the Year of the Snake with '好柿蔓满' (Good Things in Abundance).

This year, we wanted to create something that wasn’t just a packet, but a blessing. Our angpow box takes the playful shape of a fruit crate, symbolizing a bountiful harvest of Persimmons (好柿) for "Good Things" coming your way. 🧺

More than just design, this is a story of inclusivity and empowerment. We proudly partnered with AACE (Association of Art in Charity & Education for the Disabled & Disadvantaged) to bring this vision to life.

🌿 Sustainable: Printed on 100% recycled paper.
🤲 Handcrafted: Each set features a paper persimmon made from repurposed print factory waste, lovingly crafted by disabled artisans and single mothers.
📜 Artisan: The accompanying Persimmon card is letterpress printed on a vintage 1960s German press.

Inside, you’ll find 6 unique angpows that unfold to reveal hidden surprises and blessings for the year ahead, carrying well wishes like "锦囊“ the traditional silk brocade bag that carries precious items:
🍊 好柿成雙: Good things come in pairs
🍊 心想柿成: All wishes come true
🍊 柿在必行: Success is taking action
🍊 柿来运转: Good fortune is on the way
🍊 柿柿如意: Everything going your way
🍊 柿代相传: Blessings passed down through generations

This set transforms waste into purpose and tradition into impact. May sharing it bring joy, meaning, and goodness to all who receive it.

What a beautiful way to kickstart 2026 🌱

We are truly grateful to collaborate with Matrix Concepts Holdings Berhad on a 2026 calendar crafted from handmade seed paper, a project rooted in meaning, purpose, and growth. Each sheet of seed paper is carefully handcrafted by disabled youth using recycled paper collected from printing factories and offices. What may seem simple carries meaningful impact, reducing waste, empowering communities, and giving new life to discarded materials.

More than just a way to mark dates, this calendar can be planted and nurtured. As it grows into plants, it becomes a living reminder of sustainability, care, and hope for the future.

As AACE turns 5, we close 2025 with full and grateful hearts.

This year was shaped by many hands — our disabled dream chasers, parents, volunteers, designers, suppliers, and supporters who showed up with patience, care, and belief. Together, we completed a meaningful cycle of programs across six creative pillars: Paper Making, Letterpress Printing, 3D Printing, Plastic Upcycling, Paracord, and Painting — turning creativity into dignity, confidence, and livelihood.

We are deeply thankful to our collaborators and corporate partners L’Occitane, Matrix Concept, Metrics Global, Chin Hin Properties, Lotus Plywood, Club Med, and other collaborators who trusted our work. Heartfelt thanks as well to our sales partners Stickerrific, Ilham Gallery, and Loka Made for helping our creations reach more people.
And to every Good for Good purchaser and quiet supporter — you made this journey possible.

We step into 2026 grateful, hopeful, and committed to growing this community together. ✨
