Dear donors,
Epilepsy affects millions of Nigerians, with 70% of rural patients lacking access to life-saving medication. Anti-seizure drugs cost around $100 per month, which most families cannot afford. This project will supply treatment for 4,500 rural patients, helping them manage seizures, stay in school, work, and live safely.
While we are grateful for the initial donation received, it is not yet sufficient to begin full implementation. Additional support is urgently needed to cover drug procurement, distribution, and community education. Your contribution will ensure patients receive consistent medication, reduce seizure-related injuries, and help families overcome stigma, building healthier, more productive rural communities.
Warm regards,
Joy O. Etubi
