U Sports and NTUC-U Care Fund are co-organising an inaugural “community for community” virtual charity run, Run To C.A.R.E.

Date: 16 Mar - 10 Apr 2022

Run To C.A.R.E is the first virtual charity run put together by U Sports – a key engagement platform that reaches out to the union community and its associations and members through sports. U Sports is managed by NTUC Club, which is the leisure arm of the Labour Movement.

The fundraiser hopes to raise $50,000. All funds raised will go towards supporting NTUC-U Care Fund's assistance programmes where over 15,000 lower-income members and their families will benefit.

Through various assistance programmes, the Fund has supported many lower-income families by defraying their cost of living and their children's school expenses, as well as caring for the elderly. For more information about the Fund's programmes, visit ntuc.org.sg/ucare.

How to join

From 16 Mar to 10 Apr, participants can start their 42km run on the 42Race website or in-app.

To participate in the virtual run, you have to first make a minimum $20 donation at Giving.sg. You can contribute more if you wish. Following that you can register for the run with the donation's reference number via 42Race or the app. You will receive an e-bib once your registration is complete. 

You can also go one step further and set up your own fundraising campaign and rally friends and family to contribute to the campaign.
