The Corporate Games is a sports management Company that organizes Corporate Games, Corporate Runs, Corporate team building and kids’ league for corporate employees/staff in Uganda with the primary objective of inspiring Corporates through sports.
This year’s Corporate Run is themed “RUN FOR EXPECTANT MOTHERS” aiming to raise awareness about maternal health issues in Uganda. The run will feature a 2km networking walk, as well as 5km and 10km runs. The run is scheduled for 13th October 2024 from 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM starting and ending at Dove Stadium Bishop Cypriano Kihangire, Luzira.
“No Mother should die while giving birth”, In Uganda, maternal mortality remains a critical issue, with 35 maternal deaths per 1,000 live births. The Corporate Run seeks to raise awareness about maternal health complications, with proceeds going toward purchasing Mama Kits to support expectant mothers at Health Center IIIs in Northern and Eastern Uganda. “We are committed to using this platform to create awareness and support mothers in need,” said Ian Rumanyika, Chairman Corporate Games.
“Supporting this event is a way to give back to the community that trusts our brand and is a way also to support the expectant mothers with the tools to ensure safe delivery.” said Ivy Igunduura, betPawa Uganda’s Country Marketing Manager PORATE.
‘With the unwavering support of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the sponsorship of mama kits for pregnant mothers is a powerful initiative aimed at safeguarding the dignity, health, and lives of vulnerable women and their newborns. This program confronts the silent crisis of maternal mortality and transforms communities. The Ministry’s commitment is a stand for life, equality, and a future where no mother faces childbirth without the necessary support. This is more than a contribution-it’s a life-saving mission’ said Nakiwala Arithea, Senior Immigration Officer.
“As the medical partner of the Corporate Run under the theme “RUN FOR EXPECTANT MOTHERS, is dedicated to raising awareness about maternal health and supporting peripheral health centers. Every step taken in the Corporate Run represents our mission to empower mothers and enhance maternal health services in the regions most in need.” said Dr. Daniel Mitchel Talemwa, Executive Director TMR International Hospital.
“We are happy for this partnership and the main reason is to support mothers who cannot afford mama kits in our CSR program we will continue supporting these kind of events”, said Mr George Edwaldo Delakwadra.
“We are happy to associate with the corporate games since inception and since we use sports as a tool to champion good causes like the corporate run, we commit to working with all those who are involved to make the corporate run a success”, said Victor Akatwijuka, Brand Manager NBS Sport.
“When one speaks of maternal health we clearly have a picture of what it says, we would like to thank the corporate games for this initiative and we will continue working closely with the team to make corporate run a success”, said Frank Kibuule, Statehouse Uganda.
“As players in the housing industry, we appreciate that women are the mothers of the nation, one of our core pillars in the community programs we have is health. The theme of this run directly speaks to our core value of promoting health care in Uganda” said Peter Mugisa, Uganda Baati.
