Unik Impact Foundation sponsored a medical outreach on the 31st of October, 2021, at an Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) Camp in H a d e j i a t o w n , H a d e j i a L o c a l Government Area.
The people in the camp are displaced from the Ganuwar Kuka community of Auyo Local Government Area, Jigawa State, following a massive flood in October 2021. The flood, which ravaged the entire community, also destroyed farmlands and houses with breakouts of diseases among the IDPs.
This is consistent with our stated objectives of increasing access to quality healthcare services to poor, underserved, and vulnerable individuals and groups.
About 3,000 people, mostly women and children, benefited from the program, which included free consultation, diagnostics, treatments, and referrals.
