About 30 participants cycled in solidarity with ex-offenders at the flag-off event of the inaugural ‘Everesting for Second Chances’ today. Organised by HCSA Community Services (HCSA), the charitable organisation aims to raise $250,000 to empower ex-offenders to rebuild their lives.
All proceeds will go to the HCSA Highpoint Halfway House which focuses on supporting ex-offenders in their reintegration and achieving longer-term desistance with its programmes and services. The campaign is supported by the Singapore Cycling Federation, National Volunteer & Philanthropy Centre, and Yellow Ribbon Singapore.
Guest-of-Honour, Associate Professor Dr Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim, Minister of State for Home Affairs and National Development participated alongside ex-offenders and cyclists in the morning session of the 24-hour indoor cycle-thon.
Everesting is a term that refers to the activity in which people scale and descend a hill until they accumulate 8,848 metres – the height of Mount Everest – in elevation gain.
The ongoing challenge will end by 31 July 2023. To meet different fitness levels, participants have the option to either complete the full distance in a single ride or in multiple rides.
To get started, participants simply need to use the STRAVA app, a GPS-enabled physical exercise tracking application.
