The objectives of the event were to provide opportunity for interaction among employees of Group Companies and to promote an active and healthy lifestyle. The event was also part of the celebration for Sumitomo Chemical 100 years’ Anniversary and its effort to give back to the society.
An amount of $30,000.00 was raised from the event and presented to the South West CDC by the Group Companies. The funds raised will contribute towards the enhancement of green spaces in Singapore as part of the Garden Celebrative Fund Project organized by South West CDC.
The walk spanned an estimated distance of 2km which started from Alkaff Mansion at Telok Blangah Hill and ended at the Hort Park. The walk brought participants through the picturesque Forest Walk and Canopy Walk – bridges that cut through the Adinandra Belukar, a distinct type of secondary forest. The participants saw a rich variety of flora and fauna, observed birds in their natural habitat and captured the beauty of wild flowers.
