WE ARE NOT THUGS FOUNDATION PROVIDES FREE HEALTHCARE TO HUNDREDS AT HEALTHY SHITTA MEDICAL OUTREACH

The We Are Not Thugs Foundation has successfully delivered free healthcare services to hundreds of residents during its Healthy Shitta Medical Outreach, aimed at improving access to essential medical care within the community.

The outreach, held in the Shitta area of Lagos, brought together healthcare professionals, volunteers, and community leaders to provide a range of medical services, including health screenings, consultations, medication distribution, and health education.

Beneficiaries received checks for common health conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and other ailments, while those requiring further treatment were referred to appropriate healthcare facilities for continued care.

Organizers said the initiative was designed to support underserved residents who may struggle to access quality healthcare due to financial constraints and other barriers.

Speaking at the event, representatives of the foundation emphasized the importance of preventive healthcare and regular medical checkups, noting that early detection of health conditions can significantly improve treatment outcomes.

Community members expressed appreciation for the initiative, describing it as timely and impactful, especially for vulnerable individuals who benefited from the free services.

The foundation reaffirmed its commitment to community development and social welfare, stating that similar outreach programmes would continue to be organized to improve the well-being of residents.

The Healthy Shitta Medical Outreach forms part of broader efforts by the organization to promote healthier communities through accessible healthcare and public awareness initiatives.
