I'm Sorry...😣 1. We made several mistakes in our first giveaway: * Migrant brothers - I now know you work 6 days week and need overtime so Sat is a bad day even if your dorm is in the west * For brothers who stay in dormitories in other parts of Singapore, we are sorry you missed out on this * Domestic helpers, p...

Dear friends and patrons,

We recently received donations of groceries, cutlery & electronics which we have given to low income folks ( https://thebikeshack.org/blogs/latest/groceryshack-updated-19th-july ).

We have decided to formalise and publicise this activity on our social media platforms. If you have items to donate, please note we will announce and distribute them on Saturday evenings, twice a month, at TheBikeShack, IMM.

Beneficiaries are - individuals verified by partner institutions, those under ComCare, migrant workers and/or Blue CHAS cardholders (for selective items).

Very grateful for your kindness & encouragements. If you like what we do, pls do consider supporting us by clicking here (https://thebikeshack.org/pages/support-us)

Hi everyone! Hope the weekend is going well for you and family 😊.
New blog is up on website. A big shout out to student members of NUS SAVE and bike donors Ms Veronica and Mr Boon for kindness and generosity💜.

Senior cycling takes off We were approached by Ms Tracey who takes care of the elderlies in Home Nursing Foundation active aging centre. They have kick start a cycling programme with more than 20 seniors signing up. Tracey shared that a few low income seniors would love to join the cycling programme but has no bikes and una...

Hihi! Hope the weekend is going well for everyone🤗.

We have updated our blog and so happy💜that we have been able to bless a teenager staying at AWWA's transitional shelter. You can read about it and other amazing stories like an unusual donation to delivery riders.

Happy weekend and God bless!💜

Request of a Teenager J* is living with his single mom at a transitional shelter on the west of Singapore. At 16, this strapping lad goes through a phase of nuclear emotions, finding acceptance and the stress of sitting for his 'O' Levels later this year.

Dear customers, patrons and fellow eco-cyclists,

Firstly, I apologise for being so tardy in our updates.
David and I have been busy with some social activities, besides TheBikeShack, which involves special needs children and vulnerable seniors. Although it's not on the scale of what we do with TheBikeShack but it does take up what little free time we have. It's not an excuse, but I owe you an explanation, since my last update was in December.

I've updated our blog and it now includes all our recent cases. Please do check out their stories here (https://thebikeshack.org/blogs/stories) as well as to keep them in your prayers🙏

Secondly, we renewed our lease with IMM this January. Our attempts to get the authorities to adopt or take over our idea has not been successful. Although, we are a bit discouraged, we decided to go on since there is nobody else who is setting up similar in the North, East and South. There are more than 250 blocks of rental flats and over 50,000 households we need to serve, with your support.

Thirdly, we have received very positive feedback to our CSR Teambuilding activities! You can check out what we do here (https://thebikeshack.org/blogs/latest/CSR-Teambuilding) and here (https://thebikeshack.org/blogs/latest/our-first-private-csr).
We need your help to speak with your company, cycling group or association so we can create meaningful impact together🥰.

Lastly, please help us by sharing what we do with your church, network and friends. We need bike sales as well as sponsorships.

💜💜💜
Warmest regards
Elena Chong

Hubby and I are exhausted but feel privileged to support Hougang-AMK GoRide6.0. CSN Chair Patrick is the consummate gentleman and always upbeat. Adviser Mr Darryl David is so smart and engaging, and the whole team (including Land Transport Authority – We Keep Your World Moving and Singapore Police Force) were so professional and energized to serve the constituencies. Quite a sight to behold 😯🥳👍. Feeling so honored.
