WALK FOR OUR CHILDREN 2015

On 6th September 2015, Singapore Children’s Society organised its annual 3km walkathon and carnival, “Walk for Our Children” at Palawan Beach, Sentosa. Through this signature fund-raising event, Children’s Society aimed not only to encourage family bonding and fun, the spirit of charity was to be promoted as well.

Together with more than 20 organisations, FOCUS Adventure, CAMP CHALLENGE and Outdoor Adventures set up a carnival booth to raise funds for the beneficiaries under Singapore Children’s Society. We set up “The Finger Blaster Challenge!” booth which attracted participants from all walks of life. Despite the sweltering heat, the staff persevered till the end of the carnival and we are pleased to announce that a total of $535 was raised from the booth. We sincerely hope that the funds raised will greatly benefit the beneficiaries.

The experience gained from this carnival was valuable as we do look forward to being involved and contribute in future like-minded events!

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in Singapore

Each team will be tasked to build a robot together. After which they will be going through the learning session on manual controls and how to control them. This will allow their robots to be unique as compared to the rest. Their final objective will be to pit the robot that they built against man-made obstacles such as to carry items and moving from point A to point B or to going through a maze or to dance! The possibilities is endless! They will then customise a message for the children using the robots built and have it delivered to the beneficiaries.

If you are looking for an exciting challenge with a meaningful element, The Supermarket Race Challenge! will be the program for you! Teams will get to earn cash by attempting a series of challenges along the race, in a bid to earn enough money to purchase essential items for the selected beneficiary. Given a limited time and facing multiple challenges, teams will have to plan carefully and make strategic decisions to optimize their resources, and purchase as many items as possible for a good cause.
