Community health outreach
Free screening days held inside the community: blood pressure, blood sugar, and a consultation with someone who takes the time to explain what the numbers mean.
The Oguine FOUNDATION
Health you can reach.
Health you can reach.
Work you can keep.
We run free community health screenings and practical skills training across Nigeria, so that the family that gets its blood pressure checked on Saturday also leaves with a way to earn on Monday.

01 Two mandates, one visit
Poor health and low income arrive together. We treat them that way.
A screening that finds high blood pressure is worth little if the person cannot afford the follow-up. A trade is worth little if illness stops the work. So we do both, in the same communities, with the same people.
Health
Screening, teaching, and help getting seen
We hold outreach days inside the community itself. We check what people rarely get checked for, explain what the result means, and stay with them until they reach proper care.
- Blood pressure, blood sugar and general screening days
- Health education on hypertension, diabetes and maternal health
- Hygiene, mental health and everyday wellness
- Medicines and referral support for those who cannot pay
Economic empowerment
Skills that pay, and money that lasts
Training aimed at young people, women and low-income earners, chosen because there is demand for it locally, and followed by the money habits that keep an income from disappearing.
- Vocational and entrepreneurial skills training
- Budgeting, saving and responsible money management
- Help turning a new skill into first customers
- Partnerships that open jobs and markets
02 Programmes
What we run
Each programme comes straight from the objects registered in our constitution. We would rather run a small number of them properly than announce many.
Preventive health education
Plain-language enlightenment sessions on hypertension, diabetes, maternal health, hygiene and mental health. These are the conditions that are cheapest to catch early and most expensive to ignore.
Medicine and referral support
Where funds allow, we cover essential medicines and minor healthcare costs, and we follow each hospital referral until the person has actually been seen.
Vocational skills training
Hands-on training in trades with real local demand, for young people, women and low-income earners who cannot afford to train for years before earning.
Financial literacy
Budgeting, saving, pricing your work, and separating business money from family money, taught with the numbers people actually earn.
Livelihood partnerships
Working with employers, cooperatives, agencies and other NGOs so that training ends in a job, a customer or a market stall rather than in a graduation photo.
03 How we work
Three simple steps
Simple on purpose: every programme, in every community, follows the same three steps.
01
Listen first
We ask the community what it actually needs before anything is planned, never the other way round.
02
Show up and deliver
Free screenings, check-ups, medicines and hands-on training, delivered right inside the neighbourhood.
03
Stay until it works
We follow up on every referral and every trainee until care is reached or income starts.
Every gift is accounted for. Every programme answers to the community it serves.How we handle what you give
We run on other people's generosity, and we treat that as a serious responsibility. Independent auditors examine the accounts every year, and the audited statements are annexed to the annual returns we file with the Corporate Affairs Commission. Anyone can ask us for them, and any partner should.

04 Support
Three ways to be useful to us
Give
A single screening day costs less than most people expect. Donations cover test strips, medication, venue and transport for the people who could not otherwise attend.
