We set out to hit 250,000 steps.

Our small but mighty team didn't just meet that goal.
We crossed 300,000 steps in 5 days — and we're still walking.

Because the community we serve doesn't take days off. Neither will we.

We've done our part — and we're not done yet.

Now it's your turn. Have you donated yet?

Every dollar helps lift another family, secure another session, ensure no one walks alone.

Donation drive runs until 18 June 2026.
Donations of $50 and above qualifies for up to 2.5x tax deduction.
Your gift is matched dollar-for-dollar by Tote Board.

You bring the smiles. We'll keep walking. 👣

Every dollar goes directly to family and mental health programmes that make a real difference in people's lives.

And if giving is not an option right now, sharing this post with your network is just as meaningful.

You never know who might see it and want to help.

Donate until 18 June 2026.

Some people go their whole week without a single person checking in on them.

Behind closed doors, people are carrying things their closest friends don’t know about — a marriage falling apart, a mental health struggle quietly worsening, a grief that never got space to breathe.

These aren’t issues anyone talks about openly. And they’re not always visible to the people who love them most.

That is why professional support matters. The social workers, counsellors, and psychologists at Viriya show up for these people every day — families in crisis, individuals carrying mental health struggles quietly, caregivers running on empty.

Our staff have walked 1.3 million steps since March. The donations haven’t kept pace — we’re at $120,000 of a $500,000 goal, with 14 days left.

You don’t walk. You sponsor them.

Every dollar is matched by Tote Board, and donations of $50 and above qualify for 2.5x tax deduction.

Donations close 18 June. Link in comments.

250,000 steps. 25 years. One community.

Stepping Miles, Inspiring Love, Embracing Smiles — that's the spirit driving us as we celebrate this milestone at Viriya Community Services (VCS).

For 25 years, we have walked alongside our community — delivering family services, mental health support, counselling services, and caregiver support.

With every step forward, we meet a need. Another counselling session secured. Another caregiver supported. Another family lifted.

Sponsor our walk — donation drive runs until 18 June 2026. Donations of $50 and above qualify for up to 2.5x tax deduction, and your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar by Tote Board.

We walk so no one walks alone, and your support helps bring the smiles.

Every step our teams have taken is dedicated to someone in our community.

The families who needed someone to talk to. The individuals quietly struggling with their mental health. The neighbours and communities that hold each other up.

This is who the VCS Charity Walk 2026 is for — and this is who your donation reaches.

Swipe to see where every dollar goes.

Help us reach our $500,000 goal.

The healthy precinct in Boon Lay & West Coast is growing, and we are proud to be part of it by running HAPPY exercise sites and partnering with NUH RHSO to tackle social isolation, among other efforts.

As a member of the NUHS Boon Lay Workgroup, our Head of Community Health and Mental Health, Mr Tan Zhiwei, puts it best: this is a collective mandate — to embed wellness into daily life, and to shift partnerships from coordination to true integration.

A Million Steps, One Shared Purpose

When we started this one-week campaign from 25 April to 01 May 2026, we set a target of 600,000 steps. We are delighted to share that our team has more than doubled that goal, clocking in a staggering 1,248,381 steps in a week and raising more than $10,000!

Every single one of those million steps was fueled by a single purpose: walking in solidarity with the families we serve.

While the campaign week has come to an end, our walk alongside our families never stops. This incredible milestone is a testament to what happens when we walk as one community. Your cheers, your support, and your donations have turned a walking campaign into a movement of hope, strength and resilience.

Thank you for being the strength in our stride. Our campaign page remains open for contributions, and you can help us reach our fundraising goals for the families.

Support our mission: https://www.giving.sg/donate/campaign/vcs-charity-walk-2026-resilience-and-strength-in-every-step

We move forward with a full and grateful heart. Thank you for building a better tomorrow with our families, one step at a time.
