Training Smart with a Caring Heart

by Steven Quek for HCA HOSPICE CARE

As we pursue personal interests and challenges, let's also remember the less fortunate in our midst. This book - "Training Smart" - shares my experience acquired over 30 years in training endurance athletes. While it has been an enjoyable and meaningful pursuit for me, I hope to help bring joy and care to people facing life-limiting illnesses. In this regard, I would like to invite you to join me in this journey. Please donate $30 (or more) to HCA Hospice Care, an organisation into its 30th year of community service, and join my "Training Smart with a Caring Heart" initiative. You will receive a copy of the publication for your donation and your donation will go a long way to helping its beneficiaries and their family! Thank you for your support! Sincerely, Steven Quek (Please refer to the Training Smart with a Caring Heart FB page for details on book collection. All cash donations are entitled to 2.5 times tax deduction.)

Swim and Run for Down Syndrome

by Jo Lynn for Down Syndrome Association

For my birthday, I will be racing in Singapore Aquathlon challenge to raise funds for Down Syndrome cause. Down Syndrome cause is close to my heart. In my earlier years, I used to teach swimming to the children, and these little special people are so beautiful in many ways. It was a joy watching them enjoying the cool water while learning how to swim, as their parents and caregivers watch by and take a break. Hence, I will be racing in Singapore Aquathlon this 18th August (1.5km swim and 10km run). This will be my first time getting back into racing after recent injury, so this will also be a personal challenge for myself, and at the same time, raising funds to support Down Syndrome cause. The proceeds will go to Down Syndrome Association of Singapore. The funds will help DSA provide skills enhancement programmes for adults and education programmes for children. At the same time, the funds will also help DSA support needy parents and care-givers of Down Syndrome members of community. I thank you for the support from the bottom of my heart to yours.
