Find out more at www.peak24.org 

Get ready for Macquarie Peak24 - the corporate relay race to end slavery. The 24 Hour Race team is back, this time with an event for the city's business leaders. Young people in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Kuala Lumpur have already thrown down the gauntlet, running thousands of kilometers in 24 hours to raise money and awareness to combat modern slavery. Now it's your turn. Challenge your team to a blazing time in the Peak Marathon. Enjoy the peak, bring the family, and join the movement.

Peak24 is supporting RTST (HK)

Running to Stop the Traffik (www.24hourrace.org)

RTST, a charitable organization in Hong Kong, is organizing Peak24 to support the expansion of its "24 Hour Race" events beyond Hong Kong, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur to 3 new cities in UK and Korea. RTST facilitates these student-led events to raise funds and awareness to confront human trafficking and modern slavery. These events empower student leaders to create a rallying point in their community for philanthropy, engagement with a critical human rights issue, and support for an organization on the front lines of the fight against this injustice. The funds raised through the 24 Hour Race, effectively rescued children from exploitative orphanages in India, convicted sex offenders in Cambodia, and rehabilitated survivors in Malaysia – just to name a few.
