Let’s admit it, not everyone shares the same excitement when it comes to exercising. But while jogging or swimming may not be everyone’s cup of tea, walking is undeniably an activity most of us do daily.
Which is why our signature fundraising event, Walk for Our Children (Virtual Edition), is the perfect activity for anyone who is looking for a way to embark on the journey to a more active lifestyle!
Walk for Our Children (Virtual Edition) allows you to clock your steps and walk anywhere, anytime from 29 August to 10 October, alone or with your friends and family. Instead of having to commit to, and train for, a single-day event like most walkathons or marathons, you can just register and immediately get started clocking your steps just by going about your daily activities.
It is also a fantastic bonding activity for the family, as well as being a fun introduction to a more active lifestyle for your young ones! Earn achievements and unlock badges while you walk, or check out the fun and engaging games available on our site! Clock the most distance, be the first to unlock all the badges, or get the highest score in our games and win amazing prizes! Full features in our event website will be available from 29 August 2022.
All proceeds from this event will go towards supporting the diverse range of services and programmes anchored by professional staff like social workers and counsellors to support our beneficiaries. You, too, can support the work of Singapore Children’s Society and join us in caring for our future by participating in the Virtual Walk. Details are as follows:
