Exchange and Empower aims to help women from disadvantaged backgrounds escape from poverty and oppression by organising programs that broaden horizons, promote cultural exchange and provide education and life skills that help young women control their own destinies.This initiative started as a collaboration between Hong Kong Trail Running Women and renowned Nepalese trail running athlete Mira Rai and 2017 National Geographic Adventurer of the Year.
In 2023, two young and talented Nepalese trail runners, Sabina Rai and Padam Kumari Sunuwar were supported and ran in TL50.

is a community art project that is bringing Lantau island's native birds to life through murals on abandoned buildings across the Lantau that bring visitors to Lantau. TransLantau by UTMB is seeking to support this initiative by leaving a lasting legacy on the island by funding the artist to paint more birds. Runners will pass by some of those already in place on the course and will be able to choose a bird to have painted. Hikers are coming from all over Hong Kong to hunt down the murals.
