Grab your running shoes, we are going on an adventure!

We are therefore very happy to announce that the #RunWithFriends campaign is back on, especially in Cambodia with the Angkor Wat Half Marathon (4th December) and in Bangkok with the Marathon (20th November!)

Can't attend or don't want to run?? No probleeeeeeeem, just challenge yourself at a day and time of your convenience and encourage your relatives to sponsor you!

Why #RunWithFriends?

To support the education of marginalized children and help them to go back to school!  

Friends-International is an award-winning NGO and social enterprise empowering marginalized children, youth and caregivers in South East Asia. Last year, we supported thousands of children, youth and their families to get through the COVID crisis through education, training, entrepreneurship or employment.

This year, many children are still deprived of education despite that most schools reopened. Join #RunWithFriends to help us provide education support to marginalized children.

Every dollar counts and we are grateful for any support no matter the size. Here a few examples of the impact you could have...
