APEX 850 ( Penang- Singapore ) 22nd-25th January 2013



                                                                                                                                                    

10th September 2012


Dear Sir/Madam,

APEX 850 (Penang to Singapore)


Twenty cyclists from Malaysia and Singapore are participating in the upcoming Apex 850; a cycling charity fund raising to be held from 22nd to 25th January 2013. From Malaysia Penang, the cyclists will ride down to Teluk Intan, Port Dickson, Batu Pahat, ending at Apex Harmony Lodge, located at Pasir Ris, east of Singapore, a total of 850 km.

Proceeds raised from this inaugural Apex 850 will benefit needy students from Penang and the people with dementia in Singapore. Besides making a difference to the lives of the disadvantaged, the organising committee hopes to foster good will and comradeship among cyclists, supporters and sponsors from the two countries involved in this event.

Here is more information about the charities that will benefit from this event:

Launched in 2011, Apex Penang Education Fund provides financial assistance, at tertiary level, to deserving students from disadvantaged backgrounds. While the fund is fully managed by members of Apex Club of Malaysia (Penang), Sub-Committees are formed to fundraise, select deserving candidates and fund disbursement. Apex Penang Education Fund raises its own funds through donations and fund-raising projects such as this upcoming Apex 850 Ride.

                           Apex Harmony Lodge

Apex Harmony Lodge is a purpose-built 210-bed home in Singapore for people with dementia. With facilities for both residents and day-care beneficiaries, the Lodge prides itself in providing affordable, quality dementia care since 1999. Besides medical subvention funding from the Singapore government, the Lodge relies on donations and fundraising activities to sustain its operation.
                     Whether you wish to support us in terms of sponsorship, donations and/or participation, be assured that your contributions will go towards the worthy cause of helping both the beneficiaries from Penang and Singapore.
