Intrepid Travel’s charity event fundraises for Vietnam’s Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation, a not-for-profit providing rescue care, shelter, legal advocacy and support to victims of human trafficking. 

Intrepid Foundation’s flagship fundraiser brings together 300-plus participants across more than 15 countries. Sign up as an individual or a team for a mini (10km), half (21km) or full (42km) marathon.

Intrepid Foundation GM Biheng Zhang said: “A hugely popular international destination for Intrepid and the industry at large, Vietnamese communities have always welcomed us with open hearts and generous hospitality.” 

“Participating in or sponsoring the marathon walk is our chance as an industry and as travellers to give back.”
