BUKU HEALTH PROMOTION INITIATIVE
Buku Initiative is a non-governmental, non-sectarian, and not-for-profit organization. Our activities are focused on creating sustainable solutions to non-communicable diseases in Nigeria through systemic proactive approaches to prevent, control, and facilitate treatments when necessary thereby reducing fatalities from these diseases. We achieve this through funded medical outreaches, nationwide screening across Nigeria in both rural and urban areas reaching the unreached, and making a difference in the lives of all.
We engage in enlightenment, sensitization, creating awareness, and facilitating health literacy initiatives geared towards reinforcing health structures, policies, and systems needed to establish quality health access across socio-economic statuses.
Our work is fuelled by the commitment and passion of our partners, funders, volunteers, and donors who give their time, their money, and their voice to improve the lives of others.
Buku Initiative partners, volunteers, donors, and advocates make a lasting difference in so many ways. These can be helping a rural farmer learn self-breast examination, donating money to make sure people have access to quality medical care, speaking out in support of policies that provide training for in-demand healthcare skills and so much more.
