My name is Joel Mtunga, and I work in both tourism and the coffee industry here in Moshi. This year, I’ll be running the Kilimanjaro Half Marathon in support of TLM and KCMC oncology department.
I was first introduced to TLM through my wife, who came to Tanzania in 2017 to work as a pediatric oncology nurse at KCMC. Through her, I heard countless stories of children arriving from far away, often in the late stages of cancer when little could be done. Since then, it’s been incredible to witness the progress—KCMC now has a dedicated pediatric oncology ward and greater access to life-saving resources.
I’m running this year to support KCMC and TLM in their mission to provide hope and care for children with cancer in Tanzania. Every step is for them.
Thanks
Remember we have a duty to Save Little Lives and to Care for them!
