About Paul Tonkes
Paul Tonkes founded For Charity in 2025 with the aim of supporting education of disadvantaged children in Việt Nam. Cycling is 2nd nature for Dutchies like Paul, but he started participating in charity rides when he & Hung first rode with Yaana Ventures in Yen Te in October 2019 and more recently with ‘U-Go Far: Cambodia – Vietnam Cycling Challenge‘ in 2024, raising US$4000!
There are few things that compare to helping disadvantaged children and he wanted to make it into a ‘thing’ for everyone, whilst staying fit.
Paul has been in Việt Nam since 2010 and is currently an Industrial Deputy Director at Core 5 Việt Nam leading the team for Indochina Kajima.
