Chiang Mai, Thailand – 22 January 2017 – Le Méridien Chiang Mai hosts its annual ‘Run to Give’ charity run on 22 January 2017 in support of Suan Dok Hospital Foundation towards building the country’s first comprehensive long-term care centre for dependent elderly people in Chiang Mai province. Run to Give also marks the first event where legacy Starwood and Marriott International associates comes together in Asia Pacific to celebrate a meaningful cause since the announcement of the merger transaction completion in late September 2016.
Run To give echoes with the mission of Marriott International’s TakeCare movement, which we believe will lead the culture integration in the combined company; and reinforce the core values of putting people first.
The race held in Chiang Mai is a 6.2 KM charity run. The route sees participants running across the city’s business district (Chang Klan Road and Charoenprathet Road).
Registration was priced at 300 THB. As part of the registration package, participants received a LMCM Run to Give T-shirt, the 01st – 03rd place winners for both Male and Female received trophies and accommodation vouchers from SPG luxury hotels, and all tickets purchased were included in a raffle for amazing prizes including accommodation and dining vouchers at various SPG hotels.
