General
Reach for Rainbow is the newly rebranded edition of our annual signature fundraising initiative formerly known as Ride & Ralk for Rainbows. RFR is an annual fundraising event organised by Club Rainbow (Singapore) since 2012 which aims to raise public awareness as well as funds to support the families of children who suffer from a range of major chronic and potentially life-threatening illnesses. As our community grows, this rebrand reflects a shift to a more inclusive movement, where every form of participation counts. Reach for Rainbow 2026 is targeting to raise $300,000 to support our beneficiaries.
All donations received will go towards sustaining the work which Club Rainbow (Singapore) undertakes. Club Rainbow adopts a holistic approach to help our beneficiaries in 5 core aspects:
  • Social Work Intervention
  • Therapy Intervention
  • Educational Support
  • Arts Development
  • Vocational Development
Your participation and fundraising will help strengthen Club Rainbow’s social intervention support including the Financial Assistance Programme, which helps families manage cost-of-living pressures through cash aid, therapy subsidies, education support, and essential in-kind assistance such as food and medical necessities.
This year, the event is targeting to raise $300,000 to support our beneficiaries. You can choose to help in one or more of the following ways:
  • Participate in Reach for Rainbow 2026 as a Rider, Ralker, or Climber.
  • Encourage your family and friends to donate to our cause and help you reach your fundraising target.
  • Share details about our event with your social network.
  • Join us as an event sponsor.
