RUN - SWIM - BIKE WITH REFUGEES
The war in Ukraine and other ongoing conflicts such as in Afghanistan, Sudan, and Syria are tearing lives apart every day. Currently, worldwide, 120 million people have been forced to flee their home to find peace and safety. That's the population of the whole of Japan. This is a number that should have never been reached.
La Tour Geneva Triathlon and UNHCR, the UN refugee agency, have joined forces since 2019 to help people forced to flee their home. Since 1950, UNHCR has saved millions of lives and helped rebuild a future for refugees around the world. UNHCR works to ensure that everybody has the right to seek asylum and find safety having fled violence, persecution, war, or disaster.
Today, let’s stand with refugees, wherever they come from. We invite you to run, swim and bike in the La Tour Geneva Triathlon and make a donation through Switzerland for UNHCR website here or when you register.
TOGETHER, WE CAN HAVE AN IMPACT
A small contribution can already make a big difference and help a refugee family find a safe place to call home and build a better future.
