100 Mile Sponsored Walk
July 2024
Sponsored walk to raise money for the St Matia Mulumba Primary School dining room and kitchen
On 1st June, 20 children and 6 teachers from St Matia Mulumba Primary completed a 100 mile walk to raise money for their much-needed new dining room and kitchen for their school.
As it’s too hot to walk during the day in Uganda at this time of year, the walk took place over 5 consecutive nights.
This is an incredible life achievement for these small children and their teachers. The youngest child in the walking group, Anna, is only 9 years old. We are delighted to say that they all completed the walk and celebrated at the finish line at the Shrine of the Ugandan Martyrs in Kampala. Each child was presented with a certificate signed by Bishop Serverus of Masaka.
