Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai, in association with The Thai Red Cross Society, is gearing up to host the annual Cancer Care Charity Fun Run, and the excitement in the team is palpable. "It is our pride and honour to host this event every year," says Sean Mosher, General Manager, Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai and Tented Camp Golden Triangle.
Scheduled to be held on October 19, 2024, the Resort invites runners, joggers, and walkers of all ages to join the event starting at Huay Tung Tao Reservoir, Chiang Mai. "You don't have to be an expert," shares Resort Manager Anthony Tschudin, who plans to participate. "Everyone is welcome to join the three-, or ten-kilometre route to support this cause." The Resort's commitment to cancer research and awareness remains firm as proceeds from the event will go to the Cancer Research Centre at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand.
Since 1981, Four Seasons hotels and resorts around the world have been hosting annual charity events in aid of cancer research in different formats. In Thailand, Four Seasons Resorts Thailand (including Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle, Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai and Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui) has been organizing charity runs for the past 20 years and have so far raised THB 40 million for cancer research projects.
This year too, the Haematological Cancer Research Centre and the Genetic Cancer Research Centre at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital under the auspices of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, President of the Thai Red Cross Society, will receive the proceeds from this charity event to further their vital work in the field of cancer care and awareness.
Registration for the event will begin at 6:00 am, followed by a group warm-up to get into the mood of the event, before the flag-off at 7:00 am. Donations to participate are priced at THB 399 per person including an event t-shirt, a breakfast box, and a chance to win prizes in the lucky draw.
