Giving Digest | Feeding Solidarity at the Kabaka Birthday Run
By Frank Kamuntu | Sunday, April 12, 2026
The 2026 Kabaka Birthday Run drew an estimated 130,000 participants to Lubiri Palace, blending public health mobilisation with a visible act of community care. In the story you shared, the Office of the National Chairman, under Hadijah Namyalo, is reported to have provided meals and refreshments to hundreds of runners who had left home early without breakfast, adding a practical layer of support to an event already framed around health awareness and collective action. Set under the theme of men’s health, the protection of the girl child, and the fight to end HIV/AIDS by 2030, the run shows how giving can sit inside a national moment without needing to be the headline to matter.
