Busia Border Marathon Sponsorship 2025

Busia Border Marathon Sponsorship 2025
April 19, 2025 | Busia

On April 19, 2025, the streets of Busia came alive with runners, spectators, and the kind of community energy that only a well-loved event can generate. The Osiya Foundation was proud to be among the sponsors of the Busia Border Marathon, an event that sits at the intersection of sport, community pride, and cross-border fellowship.

Busia is a town that understands movement. Sitting at the Kenya-Uganda border, it is a place where people, ideas, and ambitions cross paths every single day. A border marathon is a natural expression of that spirit, athletes pushing their limits on roads that connect two nations, cheered on by a community that turns out in numbers to celebrate them.

The Osiya Foundation's sponsorship of this event reflects a belief that talent in this region deserves to be seen and supported. Not every gifted runner has access to the platforms, resources, and recognition that their ability warrants. Events like the Busia Border Marathon create that platform, and ensuring those events happen is a meaningful investment in the people who show up to compete.

Hon. Arthur Osiya joined the community at the starting line, speaking to participants and well-wishers as media captured the occasion. His presence was a reflection of how seriously the foundation takes its role not just as a funder but as an active participant in the life of this community.

Sport has always been one of the most direct routes out of a difficult circumstance and into a bigger future. The Osiya Foundation is glad to help keep that route open.
