The 15th edition of the Rotary Cancer Run has raised UGX 5.62 billion, surpassing its UGX 5 billion fundraising target and bringing the Rotary Cancer Programme significantly closer to completing the superstructure of the Cancer Treatment Centre at St. Francis Hospital, Nsambya.
The achievement, announced today at the main Cancer Run event at Kololo Ceremonial Grounds, means that the UGX 15 billion target for the superstructure of the Nsambya Cancer Treatment Centre is now fully covered, marking a major milestone in Rotary’s long-term effort to expand access to cancer treatment in Uganda.
The 2026 Cancer Run, held under the theme “Ggwanga Mujje”, brought together thousands of Ugandans in Kampala, across the country and towns around the world, alongside government leaders, corporate partners, Rotarians, Rotaractors, health workers, families and cancer advocates. The campaign had targeted to mobilize 100,000 participants and raise UGX 5 billion towards the completion and equipping of the facility.
