About Run Kuwait

Run Kuwait (RunQ8) is an annual 5K and 10K charity walkathon and run organized by the Fawzia Sultan Healthcare Network (FSHN). Over the past 12 years, the event has grown into one of Kuwait’s most prominent charity initiatives, welcoming participants of all ages and abilities.

The event aims to raise both awareness and funds to support children from low-income families who lack access to appropriate rehabilitation and healthcare services. Proceeds directly support pediatric rehabilitation programs, ensuring children receive the care they need to achieve greater independence and quality of life.
