WHAT WE DO
Hope Foundation implements various programs that enable the pursuit of the foundation focal areas, which includes improving Maternal and Child Health in under-served communities, and Provision of quality, affordable and accessible health services to under-served populace.
Early Detection & Sensitization campaigns:
Under our rural health programme, we offer free HPV vaccination for girls and young women aged 9 -26 years, which protects them from the virus that causes 70% of cervical cancers and other diseases. We also provide free and discounted rates for breast and cervical early detection screening, such as Mammograms, Clinical Breast Examinations, Pap smear and HPV tests (Human Papilloma Virus). In the last 5 years, the campaign has engaged over 5,000 beneficiaries.
Safe Motherhood- Trainings & Advocacy campaigns
With maternal and child mortality on the annual increase, health education and inclusive participation is very essential, especially for people living in the rural areas. This is because they have access to limited primary healthcare services. In collaboration with Vocational Training Centers (VTC’s), we engage and educate women in rural communities on safe motherhood practices and basic hygiene.
We train health teams that in train community members. The community is then led to create a health model which when implemented would gradually improve basic hygiene and ultimately reduce mother and child mortality in their area. As at today, this program runs in 4 states and over 25 communities.
