The perfect combination of charitable aspirations and swimming fun – that was this year’s SAFRA’s annual Swim for Hope 2019.
The event drew strong support from over 4,000 charity givers and almost 3,000 participants from the Republic of Singapore Navy, making this the largest contingent ever garnered by SAFRA. All participants took to the pool for a good cause at the ninth edition of the swim, raising $178,000. The proceeds went to this year’s beneficiaries, namely the Cerebral Palsy Alliance Singapore (CPAS), Down Syndrome Association and Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Care Fund.
Held from 11 to 13 Oct, it took place across five SAFRA clubs Mount Faber and Yishun (11 Oct), Toa Payoh and Jurong (12 Oct), and Tampines (13 Oct).
