About Us

A Race To Save Lives!

Organised by SCS, RAC 2023 aims to raise funds for cancer treatment subsidies, welfare assistance, cancer rehabilitation, hospice care, cancer screenings, research, public education and cancer support group initiatives.

Funds raised will help to drive SCS's programmes and services such as the SCS Cancer Care Fund, SCS Cancer Rehabilitation Centre, SCS Cancer Treatment Fund, SCS Help the Children and Youth Programme and the SCS Welfare Aid.

RAC exists to make our statement against cancer, to Minimise Cancer and Maximise Lives.

No one should fight cancer alone - this event invites people of all walks of life to join in the fight and run alongside those who are impacted by cancer.

This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Race Against Cancer! With 5km, 10km, and 15km categories, we hope to achieve the highest-ever number of participants for Race Against Cancer!

With exciting activities such as CEOs Against Cancer, warm-up runs, and family-oriented objectives, everyone can come together to race against cancer! Form a team of 15 or even 150, or take part in our social media contests to win attractive prizes.

About

Singapore Cancer Society

Established in 1964, Singapore Cancer Society is a self-funded voluntary welfare organisation which provides patient care services to needy cancer patients through its welfare, hospice home care, cancer treatment subsidy and rehabilitation support programmes. In addition, the Society also provides free cancer screening services and promotes cancer awareness and prevention through its public education and community outreach programmes.

The Society organises various fundraising activities, including Race Against Cancer, to rally the community to join in the fight, raising funds to support us in providing quality services to cancer patients, their families and the public.

Every year, we need to raise S$20million to fund our programmes and services.

For the RAC 2023, our target is to raise a total of $1,250,000.

Funds supports

Cancer Care Fund
A one-off financial assistance that aims to alleviate financial burdens and provide for immediate needs following a cancer diagnosis. This fund is accessible to newly diagnosed patients who meet the income requirements of the Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS).
Cancer Rehabilitation Centre
The first and only centre that provides specialised cancer rehabilitation programmes to help cancer survivors, their spouses, and their families. These interventions are designed to help them be healthy, confident, and engaged.
Cancer Treatment Fund
The SCS Cancer Treatment Fund was set up in 2005 to provide financial assistance to needy cancer patients and subsidise part of their cancer treatment costs so that no one is denied access to treatment and proper healthcare due to financial difficulties.
Welfare Aid Fund
The Welfare Aid Fund seeks to mitigate the great financial strain endured by cancer patients and their families, which may arise from unemployment, loss of income and high treatment costs.
