Da mehrere Freunde und Kollegen den Kampf gegen den Krebs verloren haben, es jeden von uns aber auch jederzeit treffen kann und ich mich dafür einsetzen möchte, die Forschung zur Bekämpfung oder Verhinderung von Krebserkrankungen zu unterstützen. Word lid van ons team

This year is especially meaningful for all of us at BCD Travel.

In September, we will take part in the Dam tot Damloop in Amsterdam with 100 BCD colleagues, coming together not only as runners, but as a team united by purpose. This edition is dedicated to the memory of our founder, John Fentener van Vlissingen, who sadly passed away in December after a battle with cancer.

In his honor, we are bringing our annual BCD running event to the Netherlands — his home country — and raising funds for cancer research through KWF (Dutch Cancer Foundation). By supporting this cause, we continue his legacy while contributing to a future where cancer can be better understood, treated, and ultimately prevented.

The Dam tot Damloop is one of the most iconic running events in the Netherlands, taking participants from Amsterdam to Zaandam. The 10-mile (16.1 km) route crosses the IJ tunnel and winds through vibrant streets filled with cheering crowds, live music, and an electric atmosphere. It is a unique event that brings together thousands of runners from around the world — from seasoned athletes to first-time participants — all sharing the same energy and determination.

For us, it’s more than just a race.
It’s about connection, remembrance, and making a difference together.

We would love your support in helping us reach our fundraising goal. Every contribution, big or small, helps drive vital cancer research forward.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us 💙
