POSB Run for Kids 2010 registration

From the website.

Registered for the above. Near my house. I believe to be the same route as last year Newton Active run without running into the 2 parks.
This will be the 3rd consecutive runs after the Yellow Ribbon Prison Run and Army Half Marathon.

Damage = $30.



Why run for kids?
Children have always held a special place in the heart of POSB. Since the 1960s, POSB has been inculcating the virtue of saving among children in Singapore. We also recognize the importance of educating and developing the young, so that they can be the best that they can be.

Following the success of last year’s inaugural POSB Run for Kids, we are happy to once again organize the POSB Run for Kids 2010 this year to help the less privileged children in our community so that they can have a happier childhood and a brighter future. We are privileged to have the Deputy Prime Minister Mr Teo Chee Hean and DBS CEO Mr Piyush Gupta gracing the event.

Who are the kids we’re helping?
The money raised will be channelled to the North East CDC Lunch Box Fund, as well as to the less privileged primary school children in Pasir-Ris – Punggol GRC.

What can I do for the kids?
You can make a difference in the lives of the children simply by running! Serious runners can take part in the 8.5km Competitive Run. Leisure runners can opt for the 4.5km Fun Run. You can also turn this into a family event by registering your children in the 1.2km Kids Run!
