An initiative of Standard Chartered Bank, the Run for a Cause programme aims to raise funds for the beneficiaries of the three official charities supported by Community Chest, the Official Charity Partner of the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2009. Your donation will help make a difference to the beneficiaries supported by the following charities:

1. Bukit Ho Swee Family Service Centre – a community-based focal point of family resources that promotes and strengthens the well-being of families in distress.

2. Lions Befrienders – reaches to lonely seniors with limited or no family support by befriending them regularly so as to dignify and enhance the quality of their golden years.

3. Rainbow Centre Yishun Park School – a place where children with autism and multiple disabilities are respected and provided with specialised curriculum and services to develop their full potential.

The runners below have generously decided to run for one of the above three causes. Every dollar pledged to these runners will go towards their chosen charity programme. 

We invite you to browse the listing below and consider supporting the runners by pledging a donation. Simply click on a runner’s photo and you will be brought to his or her very own profile page, where you can make a donation.

Thank you for taking a step with us to reach out to the less fortunate members of our community!
