DMTL Presents: A Healthy KSU 3K & Health Fair
About this race
On Saturday August 22, 2026, DMTL Nonprofit Organization will host the Annual A Healthy KSU 3K & Health Fair. Our vision is to decrease the health disparities within and among KSU students, alumni, and the Frankfort community, bridging gaps to help achieve Health Equity!
Kentucky State University alumnus and A Healthy KSU and DMTL founder Tyrie Nason Buchanan noticed a large number of his classmates and younger KSU alumni were losing their lives to health-related issues far too soon. DMTL is a 501c3 nonprofit organization focusing on health equity and mentorship and bears the initials of Buchanan’s mother and brothers whom he lost to gun violence. He made a pledge to do something to highlight healthy lifestyles while also promoting inclusivity for historically marginalized communites.
A collaboration and partnership with DMTL, Kentucky State University, KSU National Alumni Association, the City of Frankfort, local hospitals, and community based organizations, was born and evolved into an official 3K and Health Fair event. Six successful events have been held raising funds to support cancer care and research, awarding KSU students with scholarships, providing various health screenings and health education campaigns to the African American community.
Compared to their white counterparts, African Americans are at higher risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, prostate cancer, triple negative breast cancer, poor maternal and infant health, asthma, stroke, obesity, and lack of access to medical doctors. Alumni, family, and guests are encouraged to come together with purpose to bring awareness of the health disparities in the African American community so that we can build sustainable outcomes for generations to come.
Together we can connect and grow community while providing education, resources, and support to continue closing the health gaps to help our friends, family, and communities thrive.
