NGUVU RUNNING

From the Swahili word for “strength,” Nguvu Running is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) charitable organization based in California, USA, dedicated to the development of distance running talent. Our mission is to support athletes in East Africa and the U.S. by providing a unique platform that combines elite athletics training and cultural exchange. We connect two elite running groups — Nguvu Running-Kenya and Nguvu Running-USA.

Our goal is to inspire and empower a generation of athletes to reach their full potential and demonstrate that, with inner strength, talent, and preparation, anything is possible.

Your support is vital to our mission. By partnering with Nguvu Running, you can help us provide the necessary resources, training, and support for our athletes. Contributions can be made in the form of financial support, equipment donations, or sharing expertise. All donations are tax deductible and go to support the athletes.
