Health and Wellness
Our health and wellness programs aim to provide women and children with access to high-quality healthcare services, helping them lead healthier lives and take charge of their futures. Presently, our foundation is implementing the CRDB Bank Marathon program to raise funds to support our health initiatives.
About CRDB Bank Marathon
Kasi Isambazayo Tabasamu
The CRDB Bank Marathon is an annual charity race organized by the CRDB Bank Foundation to unite individuals, groups, and institutions in fighting non-communicable diseases and addressing healthcare challenges in our community.
The marathon features multiple events, including a 65km race for cyclists and 42km, 21km, 10km, and 5km races for runners. Since its inception in 2020, the marathon has raised over TZS 1.2 billion to support the health sector in Tanzania, including both Mainland and Zanzibar
The impact of this event is immeasurable, and it’s heartwarming to see so many individuals, groups, and institutions coming together for such a noble cause.

Supporting women with high-risk pregnancies at CCBRT

This is a crucial initiative that aims to reduce the high maternal and newborn mortality rates in Tanzania and improve the quality of healthcare for women and their babies. Thanks to the Bank’s donation, 240 women with high-risk pregnancies received the proper care they needed to ensure the safety of both the mother and child. This included 1,904 prenatal clinics and 814 postnatal clinics.
