RUNGANDA 2024
5K / 1-mile fun run and Jerry Can Relay
Welcome to the 7th Annual Runganda! We will have a 5K, 1 mile Fun Run, and we are excited to announce the addition of a Jerry Can Relay! Runganda brings together the community of St. Louis, MO to support a rural village in Kawete, Uganda. Runganda was inspired by students attending Christ Community Lutheran School-Uganda in Kawete, Uganda. Some of these students have to walk/run up to four miles one way to get to school. The addition of the Jerry Can Relay brings Ugandan culture to the U.S. The people of Kawete must bring their Jerry Cans every day to the well to fill them with water and carry them home in order to have water to drink, to cook with, do laundry, etc. If you are brave, get a team together for the Jerry Can Relay!
All proceeds will go to Christ Community International, an organization who’s focus is “Expressing God’s Love Through Service.” Christ Community International has been supporting this community since 2013 through educational, spiritual, and medical means. Our most recent adventure has been the construction of a high school for students in the community. Proceeds from this race will help Christ Community International continue to build a brighter future for these students!
