Inspiring dreams on and off the field!

Our foundation ensures everyone has an equal opportunity, regardless of background, fostering inclusivity and unity within the community.
We provide opportunities for young athletes to improve their skills and achieve their full potential on and off the field.
The Racheal Kundananji Legacy Foundation (RKF) proudly hosted a powerful and insightful side event at the 69th session of the Commission on the Status of Women CSW69 in New York, where we offered a platform to discuss gender-based violence (GBV) in women’s sport. This critical conversation brought together leading experts, advocates, and athletes to address the challenges and solutions in creating a safer and more inclusive sporting environment for women.
Our founders, Racheal Kundananji and Bernadette Deka Zulu, led the conversations by chairing the session and giving a situational presentation.
A heartfelt thank you to our distinguished speakers and panelists who constituted high-level experts from across the world.
Panelists:
The discussions, Q&A session, and networking opportunities reinforced the urgency of tackling GBV in sports while amplifying the voices leading the change. We are deeply grateful to everyone who contributed to making this event a success.
This marked an international launch for the RKF as we remain committed to advancing gender equity and safeguarding women in sport. Let’s continue the conversation and drive meaningful change!
