Support an SCS Charity Athlete
The SCS Charity Athletes featured here have each started a fundraising page for Singapore Cancer Society (SCS) on online donation portals such as Give.asia, Giving.sg and Simplyigiving.com. 100 % of all funds raised will be donated to SCS. SCS does not associate with athletes who claim to raise funds and awareness for SCS without first setting up a fundraising page for SCS on an online donation portal.

"Though it was tough to run 250 km within a short timeline, it cannot never be as tough as the journey that our cancer patients and caregivers are and have been going through.
Sincerely hope that you can help out by contributing (donations or helping to spread the word) to my small gesture.”

David Abernethy raises funds for SCS through running.
"Over 20 tears ago my Mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. She is a survivor thanks to her determination and the fantastic treatment she received. We recently celebrated her 80th Birthday together. Now I have a very good friend who is bravely fighting cancer which has inspired me to run for a reason and not just run for competition as I did previously. I train around 50km a week and have enjoyed running in races such as the Standard Chartered half marathon, the Relay for Life and the Terry Fox run with the objective of raising funds for the Singapore Cancer Society. SCS has kindly allowed me to use their logo on my running singlets which I hope helps in a small way to raise awareness of the fantastic work that SCS does. Please donate and help me raise money for a very good cause."
