In a remarkable collaboration aimed at empowering young girls through education, Uganda Airlines has partnered with Absa Uganda for the 3rd Absa KH3-7 Run. This annual event, set to take place on March 16, 2025, at the Millennium Ground Lugogo, is dedicated to raising funds and awareness for girls’ education in Uganda.
The Absa KH3-7 Run, organized by Absa Uganda in partnership with the Kampala Hash House Harriers (KH3), has become a symbol of community resilience and determination. This year’s event promises to be even more special with the involvement of Uganda Airlines, which has pledged to fly the top finishers of the run to South Africa for the prestigious Absa Run Your City Series in Johannesburg.
Helen Basuuta Nangonzi, Marketing & Customer Experience Director at Absa Uganda, expressed her excitement about the partnership, stating, “We’re thrilled to have Uganda Airlines on board for this year’s run. This collaboration takes the event to new heights, giving our top runners a chance to compete in South Africa. It’s a powerful motivator and proof of how collaboration can create lasting impact for both participants and the cause we support”.
The 3rd Absa KH3-7 Run will feature various race categories, including a 21km run covering Kampala’s iconic seven hills, a 10km run, and a 5km CEO Fun Run. Participants will have the opportunity to run through Kampala’s historic landmarks while contributing to a noble cause. The funds raised from the event will be used to support initiatives that address barriers to girls’ education, such as poverty, early marriage, teenage pregnancy, and menstrual hygiene.
Adedayo Olawuyi, Chief Commercial Officer at Uganda Airlines, highlighted the airline’s commitment to making the event even more rewarding. “As Uganda Airlines, we are thrilled to elevate the 2025 Absa KH3-7 Run with return tickets to Johannesburg. It’s a run for a great cause, so why not make it as special as possible? Come as a family, a group, with colleagues, or even solo—take on the streets of Kampala on March 16, and we’ll take you to the skies after that”.
Since its inception in 2023, the Absa KH3-7 Run has raised significant funds for girls’ education, directly supporting over 10,000 girls and providing them with opportunities they might not otherwise have had. The event has received tremendous support from various public and private sector organizations, making it a true community effort.
As Uganda Airlines and Absa Uganda join forces for the 3rd Absa KH3-7 Run, the event is set to inspire, uplift, and empower Uganda’s future. By participating in the run, individuals and organizations are making a direct investment in the potential of young women in Uganda, ensuring a brighter and more equitable future for all.
