Race for Good enables anyone to fundraise for the charitable works of The Salvation Army Malaysia.

The inaugural physical race was first held in Singapore in 2023 and it concluded with a positive turnout. The 2023 edition raised a total of over S$230,000 for The Salvation Army Singapore.

With this virtual fundraising activity held concurrently with our Singapore counterparts, Race for Good aims to promote a healthy lifestyle while also raising RM100,000 to help fund our residential homes for children and the aged, our education programmes for people with special needs and children from low-income families, emergency relief and community projects.
