Hello everyone! It's time for our weekly company update, where we share what we've been up to and what's new in the Scratchbac world. Let's dive in!

Embrace Event with Chio Architect
Last week, we had the pleasure of collaborating with Chio Architect to organize the Embrace community mural painting event at Yuhua Community Centre. Over a hundred community members joined us to paint and have fun together. We even had the honor of meeting Minister of Sustainability and Environment Grace Foo! Our Head of Product Jeanette designed the artwork titled Scratchbac World, which turned out beautifully. Check out more photos and details on Chio Architect's website here: https://chioarchitects.sg/projects/embrace/

BBQ Gathering with Users
After a busy sprint, we decided to take it easy and enjoy a spontaneous BBQ gathering with some of our app users, Yew and Chris, at Bukit Batok. Everyone brought some food to share, and we had a great time chatting and getting to know each other. We met some interesting users like @myfirstcheese and @kravmagaboy, who shared their experiences and feedback on our app. It was a delightful evening!
Kitten Sanctuary Visit
On Tuesday, we surprised our team with a special "emotional support" session at a cat shelter instead of a hiking trip. We visited the Kitten Sanctuary at Bugis and spent time playing with the adorable cats and kittens there. We couldn't resist the charm of a yellow tabby named Emily, and we unanimously voted to adopt her! Brandon, in particular, couldn't stop smiling while playing with her. We're excited to welcome Emily to our Scratchbac family.
