Members of the PushMore Fitness Centre @ CrossFit Malaysia in Tropicana Selatan, PJ collaborated with COAC and the PDK Cenwaey Penaney of Kampung Ulu Tual to raise funds for the latter.
Participants were required to get their friends and families to pledge a certain amount for every kilogram of deadlift the ‘athlete’ can lift, and then another amount for each of the number of ‘burpees’ the participant can do.

Five Semai villagers from Kampung Ulu Tual, including the two teachers-in-training, were on hand to put up a small information display and to answer questions.
From COAC, there was Jenita, Kar Lye, Yein & Sze Ning. Jenita, of course, is also with the PDK Cenwaey Penaney while Sze Ning is also a member of the PushMore gym community (and the main initiator of this fund-raising project).
Lilian Chen also offered her chiropractor services as part of the fund-raising itinerary.
Total collected in cash, cheque and pledges for the 3-hour event was RM24,105.50.
Thank you to all the athletes for being very generous and supportive.
