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

Support Us

In 2016, during a visit to the Da Nang Hospital for Women and Children, Chi Nguyen, Newborns Ambassador and holder of all six Abbott World Marathon Majors, was moved to tears. Alongside her Ironman 70.3 relay teammates, Ms Hoa and Ms Tieu Phuong, she presented a donation for life-saving neonatal equipment — a moment that captured the true heart of sport with purpose.

But Chi didn’t stop there. Inspired by the Ironman mantra “Anything is Possible”, she set out to prove it. In 2019, she taught herself to swim, coached Ms Tran Hien actress to run, and helped Ms Khanh Quan office girl become a cyclist. Together, they crossed the Ironman 70.3 finish line — a team built not on experience, but on heart, courage, and belief. This is the spirit that defines both Newborns Vietnam and Ironman Vietnam — bold, determined, and deeply human.

Chi, your journey is a reminder that no challenge is too great when it’s powered by purpose. Thank you for inspiring a decade of hope, action, and lives saved.
