Community Healthcare Network-NG
We're a 501(c)(3) public charity, not-for-profit, and non-governmental organization. We're founded, formed and funded by individuals, churches and organizations, who believe (Article 25 of the United Nations' 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights) that healthcare is a human right for every adult and every child, and not a privilege for a few individuals. When we say every adult and every child, we mean everyone, no matter their gender, ethnicity, socio-economic status, political affiliation, or religion.
The purpose of the foundation is to provide free health care and wellness programs: to reduce the poverty of the poor and underprivileged adult men, women and children. We provide healthcare free of charge to the poor and less privileged, who have no access to primary healthcare services. We also provide prenatal and postnatal care, promote safe childbirth practices, and provide nutrition screening, therapeutic feeding: to reduce infant and children malnutrition.
A lot of the children we serve suffer from malnutrition and have no access to good education because of the high cost of education, and some are homeless and subject to a wide range of abuses. Instead of attending school, many spend their days hawking items on city streets in efforts to contribute to their family’s meager income. Some of the children are robbed of their childhood, and from the opportunities to realize their full potential.
Many unhealthy circumstances contribute to poverty and expose the children to dangerous living conditions and perpetuate the devastating cycles of poverty. And these conditions inhibit healthy childhood development and constrain children’s future economic prospects.
The adults we serve are not better off: with poverty, poor medical conditions, HIV/AIDS, hypertension, diabetes, tuberculosis, respiratory diseases, and other tropical endemic diseases, such as malaria and skin diseases.
Our free medical mission programs are in the southeastern part of Nigeria in West Africa. Nigeria is one of the wealthiest countries (if not the wealthiest country) in Sub-Saharan Africa, yet there is poverty everywhere. Many adults and children have no access to primary care services.
An important aspect of our free medical mission programs is the rapid testing, counseling and distribution of medications for HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis B and C, and other sexually transmitted diseases. We also raise awareness about HIV/AIDS, and other diseases such as tuberculosis, malaria, diabetes, hypertension, respiratory and other tropical diseases.
We work in collaboration with local medical professionals: doctors, pharmacists, nurses, as well as other caring volunteers, to implement disease prevention programs, conduct screenings, distribute medicines, as well as continuing healthcare after our free medical mission programs.
We hope you'll consider joining and supporting us in our free medical mission programs. Together, we can save lives, give and restore hope, and make a difference in the world!
We are a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization | EIN: 83-4599391 | Donations are tax-deductible.
