Hope for the Future
“It is not about running away – it is about running towards a more hopeful future.”
As a long-distance runner, Virginie believes that sports can make a great impact on our lives. It is why she founded RUN Hong Kong with the aim of helping refugees recover from physical and mental trauma and regain a positive outlook on life through sports and education. By running and hiking outdoors together, refugees in similar predicaments can try to get out of their slumps and move forward in life with new-found confidence and hope.
