Together, we can save newborn lives – will you join us?

Support Us

Saturday morning, July 22nd was fun and special. Especially because I went to Hàm Lợn Mountain, Soc Son District for the first time to attend the Ham Lon Everesting event by Vietnam Ultra Trail (VUT) for athletes who conquer the height of 8848m (The height of Mt. Everest – the highest mountain in the world) by climbing to the summit of Mt. 462m Peak (up and down).

In my Newborns Vietnam t-shirt, I hope to contribute to this meaningful charity. I love and admire the team from the United Kingdom. Along the way, happy faces, greetings and encouragement were so warm. We’ve never met before but we’re strangely close. We also practiced for the 50km VMM in September. With 2 loops with 8.25km distance and 898m elevation gain. Thank you organisers for the interesting event and meticulous logistics for athletes to conquer the challenge.
