HELP RAISE $594,000

There are families and individuals in our communities who may face seemingly insurmountable challenges everyday. For example, some live alone and may be afflicted with chronic or debilitating illness that inhibit regular employment while others may have insufficient income to support their family.

Ride for Rations supports 580 households with monthly food rations and 200 school-going children with breakfast sets, to alleviate part of their daily stressors.

This ground-up initiative is organised and managed entirely by volunteers from Bike-Aid (Singapore). Every single cent raised goes to Sunlove Abode for Intellectually-Infirmed Ltd, a registered charity, that procures the food rations and identifies the deserving families in Bukit Merah, Chai Chee, Depot Road, Geylang, Hougang, Marsiling, Serangoon, Whampoa and Woodlands.

Sign up for #RideforRations2024!

Registration closes on 15 June 2024.
