Five UWCSEA Teachers will cycle 1500 kilometers from Singapore
to Phuket to raise funds for a Tsunami Education Trust.

Over the Easter break, five UWCSEA teachers and two parents are
cycling from Singapore to Phuket, a distance of 1500 km in nine
days. The aim of this physically and mentally challenging cycle
ride is to promote the establishment of, and to raise funds for, a
Tsunami Education Assistance Fund which is being set up at
UWCSEA to offer financial assistance to students orphaned by the
recent tsunami who need financial support to complete their
education. The Fund will officially be launched on Friday 18th
March when the cyclists set off from UWCSEA.

You can get details on this and other UWCSEA tsunami initatives
- the college has already raised over S$120,000 for immediate
and medium term support - and the cycle ride aims to raise at
least S$150,000 for support over the next ten years.

For details on these initiatives, the dates and itinerary of the
riders, please visit the UWCSEA website at:

If you can support the riders in any way please contact us on
tsunamirelief@uwcsea.edu.sg

Thanks
