Guest of Honour Desmond Tan, Senior Minister of State in the Prime Minister's Office and NTUC Deputy Secretary-General, joined sponsors, partners and members of the trade association to celebrate the industry's collective contribution to the community.

As SMCTA's payment partner for the event, FOMO Pay helped power a seamless giving experience that made it easy for guests and sponsors to support the cause. Behind the scenes, FOMO Pay integrated its online payment gateway into two dedicated SMCTA websites, one for raffle ticket sales and another for dollar-to-dollar donations, activating credit card, PayNow and e-wallet options across both, giving guests and sponsors a range of ways to contribute.

The Charity Dinner builds on SMCTA's broader push to modernise the motorcycle trade industry. The Association has supported motorcycle workshops in adopting digital tools to streamline operations, improve productivity, and enhance customer service standards and professionalism across the sector. This year's event marked a different kind of contribution, one that reached beyond the industry itself to support children and families in need.
