Children Cancer Run

Namabiro Foundation in partnership with AAR Uganda, and Uganda Child Cancer Foundation organized the Fist Children Cancer   run on Sunday 24th February, 2013. AAR was the official sponsor for all medical and emergency services for the annual Children Cancer fundraising run .Over 300 children participated in the run. All Proceeds will go to the children's cancer ward at Mulago Hospital.

Namabiro-Foundation Uganda in conjunction with Uganda Child Cancer Foundation also carried out free cancer screening. The children who participated also received certificates. The event was held at Paragon Hospital in Bugolobi.

The founder of the Namabiro Foundation, Ms Florence Namabiro, said: "We understand that most child cancer victims are from poor backgrounds and essentials cannot be accessed by many of these people." She said the foundation also advocates for a comprehensive social health insurance that would provide access to affordable and quality cancer facilities for the victims.

Children are fighting valiantly every day to survive cancer and their only hope of a cure is through more research. The survival rate for some childhood cancers has increased to almost 80%, but others have a less than 50% cure rate. Cancer remains the number one disease killer of children and the number two killer after auto accidents.

Namabiro Foundation Uganda is a voluntary organization; Non Governmental Organization (NGO) which is not for profit making, but formed to focus on the welfare of the underprivileged children in Uganda. With Love and Passion for children, Namabiro Foundation Uganda will stand with the World in supporting the less-fortunate and under-privileged children. This Foundation is a charity foundation which stands out to fulfill the most a child needs, for a child to forget the pain, fear and to stand as a home child.

Hope

Do not let go of hope

Hope gives you the strength

To keep going

When you feel like giving up.

 

Do not ever limit believing in yourself

As long as you believe you can

Make it to a success

You will have a reason for trying.
