Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31116, member: 636"] Hima Cement donated 20 million Ugandan shillings to help the Kabaka Birthday Run fight HIV/AIDS across Uganda. The company wants better health for local communities through this donation to the 12th running event. Everyone will celebrate Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II's 70th birthday on April 6. For this year, they picked the theme "Men for Good Health to Save the Girl Child." Philemon Mubiru runs marketing at Hima Cement and believes helping communities stay healthy matters more than just business duties. He thinks thousands of people hear important messages about stopping HIV when they join this big run. Uganda hopes to beat AIDS completely by 2030 as part of its national health goals. Runners can choose races of 5km, 10km, or 21km during the event. These races push ideas like HIV testing, healthy living, and asking men to help prevent HIV spread. The focus on male action aims to protect young girls who catch HIV at higher rates than other groups. About 1.4 million Ugandans live with HIV right this moment. The country saw 54,000 new cases back in 2022. Charles Peter Mayiga led as Buganda Prime Minister and thanked all sponsors yesterday at Bulange Mengo. He connected public health directly to business success. Companies simply cannot grow when the people around them are sick. Mayiga pointed at bigger social problems behind HIV spread. He mentioned how some men use cars, cash, and gifts to pressure women into risky relationships. He asked all men to protect young girls because doing that protects everyone, including their daughters. [/QUOTE]
