Li Foundation was honoured to participate in the SG60 Appreciation Ceremony held at Punggol, where the Relay SG60 by Relay Majulah photography book (ISBN: 978-981-94-5384-9) was soft-launched as a commemorative publication capturing the collective spirit behind one of SG60’s unique ground-up community initiatives.
Published and funded by Li Foundation, the photography book documents Relay SG60 by Relay Majulah, a national charity relay co-organised with Zephyr Running Club to commemorate Singapore’s 60th year of independence. From 4–6 September 2025, the relay brought together 60 teams to run 600 kilometres over 60 consecutive hours, raising more than $800,000 for over 300 charitable programmes supported by Community Chest.
During the ceremony, a copy of the photography book was presented to Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade and Industry, Gan Kim Yong, and Senior Minister of State for National Development and Transport, Sun Xueling, to recognise the contributions of those who made the relay possible. Li Foundation also hosted a booth for visitors to learn about the Relay SG60 event and the collective effort behind the broader initiative.
Beyond serving as a record, the publication preserves the stories behind the relay – moments of perseverance, camaraderie, and generosity that defined the initiative and showcased the Singapore spirit. Through photographs and reflections from participants and organisers, the photography book honours the collective effort of the businesses, non-profits, volunteers, and individuals who came together in support of the community. It stands as a legacy of Relay Majulah 2019 and the values of unity, resilience, and giving that the movement embodies.
As the stories of Relay SG60 continue to inspire, Relay Majulah will return in 2026, carrying the baton forward and rallying more individuals and organisations to join in building a stronger, more caring Singapore together. Majulah Singapura!
The book showcases how the participants challenged their limits and conquered the World Marathon Challenge and North Pole Marathon to inspire people to challenge their own limits and pursue their dreams boldly.
The book tells the stories behind the event which saw the largest number of people in history running 1045km round Taiwan in 19 days.
