In line with the global observance of World Health Day, FeedNeedy-World-Initiative, a widely respected non-governmental organization founded (NGO) by U.S-based Nigerian humanitarian Isaac Eromosele, is set to deliver a free community healthcare program, titled “Know Your Vitals”, to support the elderly and other marginalized individuals in Nigeria.
The initiative is scheduled for Wednesday at Ogombo Community in the Okun-Ajah area of Lagos State and aimed to expand access to vital health services for vulnerable individuals, to reduce health disparities and improve quality of life across underserved communities.
Creative Director of the NGO, Ms. Alayande Oluwatosin, noted that the outreach will include free medical consultations, blood pressure checks, blood sugar testing, weight assessments, general health screenings and public health education, as special focus will be given to elderly citizens, who often face deepened health risks and limited access to care.
Founder and Chairman Isaac Eromosele, recognized for his global philanthropic contributions, emphasized the initiative as a continuation of FeedNeedy-World-Initiative’s impactful work, highlighting previous efforts, which included; the Tech-A-Child Initiative, Education Access Fund Scholarship, Essential School Supplies Program and Livelihood Support Projects for individuals in both Nigeria and the diaspora.
“Our goal is to uplift and empower the marginalized. This healthcare outreach reflects our genuine commitment to enhancing community well-being and promoting inclusive healthcare,” said Eromosele.
“This initiative supports the global call for health equity and emphasizes the urgent need for collective action to eliminate healthcare disparities”, he added.
The FeedNeedy-World-Initiative team is encouraging residents, particularly the elderly, to participate in the outreach and take advantage of the free services available, while supporting the global advocacy for better healthcare access.
