FirstCom Academy was proud to support PaPaZao’s 3rd Anniversary celebration, held at Punggol Coast Mall on 13 July 2025.
Founded by local filmmaker Jack Neo, PaPaZao has grown from a simple walking initiative into a vibrant community movement that brings people together through fitness, friendship, music, and positive energy.
The anniversary celebration saw an estimated 3,000 participants coming together for a meaningful morning of warm-up exercises, walking, games, performances, and community bonding. Organised in partnership with the Agency for Integrated Care (AIC), the event carried the theme “Life Unstoppable” and was graced by Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong and Minister for Law Edwin Tong.
As part of our support for the event, the FirstCom Academy team volunteered on the ground to help ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for participants.
Our team assisted with the registration process, supported the distribution of goodie bags, and helped with the prize presentation process. We were glad to contribute in these practical ways, working alongside the organisers and volunteers to keep the event running smoothly.
FirstCom Academy also sponsored gifts for participants, adding to the spirit of appreciation, celebration, and community joy throughout the morning.
The event brought together participants from all walks of life, including long-time PaPaZao supporters, new participants, families, seniors, and familiar faces from Singapore’s entertainment scene. Beyond the walk itself, the celebration featured games, performances, and appearances by around 80 celebrities and personalities, creating a lively and uplifting atmosphere for everyone present.
It was heartening to see so many people coming together not only to stay active, but also to connect with others, build friendships, and enjoy a shared sense of community.
PaPaZao’s growth over the years reflects the power of simple, consistent community efforts. What began as a small walking session has become a meaningful platform that encourages Singaporeans to lead healthier, more social, and more active lives.
For FirstCom Academy, supporting this event aligned closely with our belief in building better futures through continuous growth, whether through learning, wellness, or community participation.
We are grateful for the opportunity to be part of PaPaZao’s 3rd Anniversary celebration and to support an initiative that promotes active living, friendship, and positive community spirit. We look forward to continuing our support for meaningful initiatives that bring people together, uplift the community, and encourage Singaporeans to keep moving forward, one step at a time.
