About the Event

The Cancer Color Run, initiated in 2023 by the Uganda Child Cancer Foundation, is not just a race; it’s a powerful movement aimed at raising awareness and funds for childhood cancer. Our mission is simple yet profound: to create a world where every child has the chance to thrive, free from the burden of cancer.

Join us as we embrace life’s marathon, salute survivors, and honor the memories of those we’ve lost. Together, we can make a difference.

Our Purpose

Through survivorship advocacy campaigns, community mobilization efforts, and fundraising initiatives, we (the Uganda Child Cancer Foundation) strive to make a tangible difference in the lives of young cancer patients and their families. From providing essential support services to advocating for improved access to quality care, the Cancer Color Run is a testament to our unwavering commitment to the cause.

Join Us in This Symphony of Compassion
Imagine a world where no child faces the cold grip of cancer. Imagine playgrounds filled with laughter, not IV poles. Imagine futures rewritten, dreams reborn. It’s not just a dream; it’s our shared purpose.
Hope is our anthem, resilience our rhythm, and love our guiding star. Together, we’ll dance through the pain, brush away tears, and create a symphony of healing.
We stand on the precipice of change, hearts entwined with purpose. Our mission is etched in the colors of resilience and compassion. Here’s how we wield our collective strength:
  • Raising Awareness

We become the storytellers—the ones who refuse to let childhood cancer hide in shadows. We paint the world with hues of understanding, ensuring that every person knows the weight of these little lives.

  • Supporting Families

In the quiet moments when parents hold their breath, waiting for test results, we stand beside them. We offer more than financial aid; we offer solace, a listening ear, and the warmth of a community that understands their fears.

  • Funding Research

Our hope lies in laboratories where scientists chase elusive cures. We fund their tireless pursuit—the late nights, the eureka moments, and the tears shed over data. Each dollar we raise is a beacon of possibility, a step closer to saving a child.
