SAFRA Swim For Hope is back!

Introduced in 2011 by SAFRA Tampines, SAFRA Swim For Hope provides an opportunity for Operationally Ready National Serviceman and their families to contribute to charitable causes, while promoting fitness and bonding through swimming.

The event adopts various charities each year to raise funds to help those in need. SAFRA Swim For Hope has raised close to S$1m in total since, benefitting more than 12 charity organizations such as Autism Resource Centre, Cerebral Palsy Alliance Singapore, Down Syndrome Association and SAF Care Fund.

SAFRA Swim For Hope 2024 aims to empower communities through the transformative power of swimming, by raising funds to provide access to swim education, promote health while fostering a culture of inclusivity and family bonding.
