AIA Thailand, led by Mr. Knattapisit Krutkrongchai, Chief Agency Officer, and Ms. Kanya Kantathaworn, Director of Marketing Management and Communications proudly announces its recognition in the Health Promotion category at the Asia Responsible Enterprise Awards (AREA) 2024. This accolade acknowledges the remarkable success of the “AIA One Billion Trail 2023,” the groundbreaking trail-running event in Thailand.
The AIA One Billion Trail, held on the scenic route between Doi Inthanon and Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai, is Thailand’s inaugural team trail running event. In 2023, it brought together 400 teams of four runners each and raised over 4-million-baht funds for the Thai Red Cross Society’s education project. The proceeds went toward supporting Thai language literacy for underprivileged children in remote areas, marking a significant achievement in social empowerment and health promotion.
The AIA One Billion Trail is more than just an event; it is a commitment to inspiring healthier, longer, better lives for Thai people. This initiative aligns with AIA’s mission to engage one billion people in leading healthier lifestyles. Following last year’s triumph, the next AIA One Billion Trail is scheduled to take place from 22-24 November, once again in Chiang Mai.
The Asia Responsible Enterprise Awards (AREA) 2024 honors organizations demonstrating exceptional dedication to sustainable social and environmental practices. This recognition of AIA Thailand underscores the company’s commitment to sustainable business practices that prioritize the well-being of Thai people and communities.
