This week is Safe Child Thailand’s inaugural Global Run. Throughout the week, runners from around the world are running/walking in support of Safe Child Thailand’s work to provide a safe and nurturing environment for children across Thailand. Runners are aiming to collectively run the length of Thailand – 1,024 miles!
With the kick-off of the week-long run this week, it’s an honour to share a special message from the Ambassador of Thailand to the United Kingdom in support of the Global Run and all participating runners:
”Dear Participants,
I wish to extend my heartfelt support to all those participating in Safe Child Thailand’s Global Run, a commendable virtual event that goes beyond borders to make a positive impact on our world. Your dedication to run 1,024 miles which is the length of Thailand to raise funds for vulnerable children in Thailand showcases the power of philanthropy in the current VUCA and BANI world in which we all live.
As you set your own running and fundraising goals, please remember that every step you take will contribute to a brighter future for those in need. Your efforts will help thousands of vulnerable children in Thailand to grow up in safe and nurturing environments with their loving families and communities, enabling them to reach their full potential and to mature into responsible adults. I salute each and every one of you for your dedication.
Thank you for being champions of change. Your passion and commitment will help create a better world for generations to come. I wish you all an incredible Global Run.”
Thani Thongphakdi
Ambassador of Thailand to the United Kingdom”
