The Embassy of Uganda in Burundi today successfully hosted the 3rd edition of the Burundi Rotary Cancer run 2024, in solidarity with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Uganda which has organized the 13th edition of the Annual Rotary Cancer Run in Uganda, slated for tomorrow Sunday 25th August 2024.
The Embassy of Uganda in Bujumbura is ready to host the 2024 cancer run. This is an effort to show support for those who have and are battling cancer. The run this year will be held on Saturday 24th August 2024, as opposed to Sunday 25th, because many would-be participants usually attend church on Sundays, and Burundi residents usually use Saturday mornings for mass sporting activities.
Part of the proceeds this year will go towards the Centre Medico Chirurgical de Kinindo (CMCK) Hospital.
