RUN@SUTD
Together with our partner Frasers Centrepoint, we will be hosting the second RUN@SUTD, On Track to a Better Life on Saturday, 30th of September 2017. The objective of the run is to promote the well-being of body, mind and spirit among the student population and community at large, as well as raising awareness for the intellectually disabled athletes and acknowledging their efforts.
WHAT IS RUN@SUTD
RUN@SUTD is a fundraiser where participants will sign up to run a 5km route near the SUTD campus planned out by the committee. In its second year, RUN@SUTD is expected to attract over 350 participants from all walks of life and hope to raise $10,000 from the event in which all of the proceeds will be donated to the Special Olympics Singapore (SOSG).
WHAT ARE THE OBJECTIVES OF THIS RUN?
Through this run, we aim to encourage the SUTD community as well as the public to lead a more active lifestyle through running and to raise awareness of difficulties disabled athletes face and the role society can play to help them realize their dreams.
HOW WILL IT BE USED IN SUPPORTING THE ATHLETES FROM SPECIAL OLYMPICS SINGAPORE?
Your donation will be used to partially fund the training of SOSG Athletes for the Special Olympics World Summer Games in 2019, and to support SOSG Running and its other Outreach Clubs.
