Annual Kilimanjaro Run: 280 km for Education

Join us for our annual 8-day run around Mount Kilimanjaro (280 km) to raise funds and awareness for education programs in rural Tanzania. This challenging event brings together supporters from around the world.

Every year, KAP organizes an 8-day run around Mount Kilimanjaro (280 km) to raise awareness and funds for our programs. This challenging event brings together supporters from around the world who believe in our mission to transform rural communities through education and support.

The Challenge

The route covers 280 kilometers around the base of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak. Participants run through diverse landscapes, from lush forests to arid plains, experiencing the beauty of Tanzania while supporting a great cause.

What You'll Experience

  • Stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro
  • Visits to rural communities we serve
  • Meeting children, elders, and families benefiting from our programs
  • Cultural immersion in rural Tanzania
  • Sense of accomplishment and purpose

Fundraising Impact

Last year's run raised $25,000, which directly supported our school building project and other programs. This year, we aim to raise even more to accelerate construction of the Lerangwa primary school.

Who Can Participate?

We welcome runners of all levels. Whether you're an experienced marathon runner or someone looking for a meaningful challenge, you can participate. We provide training support, accommodation, and all necessary logistics.

Join us and be part of transforming lives while experiencing one of the world's most beautiful landscapes. Together, we can create lasting change.
