On July 19th, 2024, our Lagos team recently took critical healthcare services directly to the bustling Ipodo Market in Ikeja, bringing essential medical interventions to the heart of the community. This impactful outreach event aimed to provide free health services, educate the public on #FamilyPlanning, and ensure access to vital medical commodities for underserved populations.

A vibrant canopy was set up at a central location in the market, creating a welcoming space where shoppers, vendors, and community members could stop by to:

  • Receive free health checks, including blood pressure monitoring and general wellness assessments.
  • Get personalized #FamilyPlanning counseling tailored to their unique reproductive health needs.
  • Access a range of medical commodities and services, including information on affordable and reliable options for family planning.

The turnout exceeded expectations, with community members showing enthusiastic participation. Women, men, and even young adults stopped by to learn more about health and wellness, creating a lively and positive atmosphere throughout the event. Many shared their gratitude for having these services brought so close to their daily lives, highlighting the importance of meeting people where they are to make healthcare truly accessible.

This outreach at Ipodo Market was a testament to our commitment to addressing healthcare gaps in local communities. It also reinforced the importance of grassroots advocacy and direct engagement in driving awareness and uptake of family planning and other health solutions.

A huge thank you to the dedicated ePharma4FP Lagos team, whose hard work and passion made this event a resounding success, and to everyone in the community who visited us. Together, we are building healthier communities by providing access, knowledge, and care right where it’s needed most.
