Event Description
This 5K event will raise funds to support our orphanage in Karamoja, a remote and desperate region in northeastern Uganda.
Mission Critical International has established a safe haven in this destitute area. She is currently caring for and serving over 350 Karimojong orphans, providing them with food, shelter, and love. Nearly every week, we are blessed to rescue another child from imminent danger.
