As the Optiven Foundation, we have established various pillars to support our mission of social-economic transformation, one of which is the Health and Dignity pillar. In line with the UN Sustainable Development Goal 3, we have focused on aspects of good health and hygiene, aiming to restore dignity and empower individuals.
We work through strategic programs and partnerships, and have addressed a wide range of health-related challenges faced by marginalized individuals, including access to healthcare services, sanitation, and mental health support.
One of the key initiatives under this pillar is the “Mobility that bring smiles” centered around donating wheelchairs to individuals with mobility challenges. The initiative underscores our commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of marginalized individuals and by addressing the mobility needs of those with disabilities, we have been able to empower individuals to lead more independent lives.
Our impact extends far beyond improved physical mobility and as Ann Nyagah – Optiven Foundation coordinator explains, the ability to move independently translates into a significant boost in confidence and self-esteem to the victims. By addressing these challenges faced by individuals, the Foundation paves the way for a more inclusive society.
”As I embark on this new chapter empowered by your generosity, I am committed to paying it forward and spreading hope and positivity to others in need, just as you have done for me,” one beneficiary stated as they received a wheelchair.
These efforts by the Optiven Foundation under the Health and Dignity pillar exemplify a commitment to enhancing the quality of life for individuals and communities, fostering an environment where health and dignity are accessible to all.
