Caro Yeko Cheptegei

At the Joshua Cheptegei Development Foundation (JOCDEF), we believe in the power of opportunity, dedication, and community. Our vision is to uplift and empower young people through education, sports, and community development, ensuring that talent and potential are never limited by background or resources.

As Co-Founder of JOCDEF, I am deeply committed to creating a lasting impact in the lives of young people, especially in Uganda and across East Africa. We work tirelessly to provide access to quality education, mentorship programs, and sports development initiatives, fostering an environment where youth can dream big and achieve greatness.

Together, with the support of our partners, stakeholders, and well-wishers, we are building a future where every child has the tools they need to succeed—both in sports and in life. I invite you to join us in this journey of transformation and empowerment.

Together, we can create champions—on and off the track.

Warm regards,
Carol Yeko Cheptegei
