Launch a Social-Impact Incubator
Our company has launched a social-impact incubator to support and mentor social entrepreneurs. This initiative aims to drive innovation and sustainable solutions for pressing social issues. We provide resources, mentorship, and guidance to selected entrepreneurs, enabling them to develop and scale their ventures.
Through this incubator, we foster collaboration, facilitate networking opportunities, and connect entrepreneurs with potential investors or partners. This unique initiative showcases our commitment to social responsibility and empowers changemakers to create meaningful impact in their communities.

Offer Free Professional Services
In recent years, our company has established a community outreach program offering free professional services, such as legal or financial advice, to individuals and families who cannot afford them. This initiative aims to address a critical aspect of support that often goes overlooked. Through our team of experienced professionals, we provide guidance, assistance, and expertise to help navigate legal or financial challenges.
For example, we have partnered with local community centers and shelters where our professionals allocate dedicated hours to provide consultations, document review, and financial planning. This program has made a positive impact by offering essential support to those in vulnerable situations and creating a lasting connection between our employees and the community.

Introduce a “Bonsai Buddies” Initiative
Our company has recently launched the “Bonsai Buddies” initiative. We unite with local horticulturists to facilitate workshops where underprivileged children learn the art of bonsai—a traditional Japanese form of gardening. It’s a unique chance for these kids to connect with nature, learn patience, and develop a deep appreciation for Japanese culture.
Simultaneously nurturing trees, we see young minds blooming. A website, thanks to our IT team, showcases their bonsai creations, instilling in them a sense of pride and accomplishment.

Implement a “Fit for Good” Program
At Total Shape, we’re all about giving back and making a positive impact on the community. One initiative we’re particularly proud of is our “Fit for Good” program. It’s a unique charitable project where we partner with local schools to promote health and fitness among students. We provide free fitness classes, nutrition workshops, and donate sports equipment to encourage an active lifestyle from an early age.
Not only does it help the kids stay healthy, but it also fosters a sense of community and teamwork. We believe that investing in the well-being of our future generations is a great way to make a lasting difference.
