Health Outreach Programmes
Akanne Health is a Nigerian non-profit organisation. We offer simple health education, practical outreach, nutrition awareness, and compassionate community support.
Why our work matters
Many illnesses affecting Nigerian families can be prevented or managed through early action, healthy habits, and the right support.
Malaria and neglected tropical diseases
Over 100 million Nigerians are at risk of neglected tropical diseases, and malaria remains a leading cause of illness.
Chronic diseases
High blood pressure and diabetes are often found too late because many people do not get screened.
Every family deserves clear health education, and every community deserves the chance to live healthier.
What we do
Four programmes, one aim: bring clear, practical health information to the people who need it.
Health education
We create simple, practical health education through videos, articles, workshops, and community campaigns, so people can make informed decisions about their health.
Community outreach
We organise health awareness outreaches, community engagement activities, and educational events that bring health information directly to people.
Caregiver support
We share educational resources and guidance that help family caregivers support children, older adults, and loved ones living with health challenges.
Nutrition insight
Good nutrition is the foundation of good health. We promote healthy eating, nutrition education, and practical community food initiatives that support healthier families.
