Help SaliHoe Foundation Build Nigeria's First Free Cervical Cancer Center The Story: Every single hour, a woman in Nigeria loses her life to cervical cancer. These aren't just statistics; they are our mothers, daughters, wives, and sisters. Most heartbreakingly, cervical cancer is almost entirely preventable. Yet, thousands of Nigerian women suffer late-stage diagnoses and agonizing, preventable deaths due to ignorance, lack of routine screening, and zero financial access to lifesaving vaccines. Take Jennifer's story. Like many, Jennifer's journey was plagued by a lack of initial awareness and repeated misdiagnoses. By the time she got a proper screening, it was a late-stage diagnosis. She left behind a grieving family simply because basic healthcare was out of her reach. At the SaliHoe Foundation, we refuse to let this narrative continue. For 14 years, our certified NGO (CAC/IT/NO 40907) has fought on the front lines to eradicate this disease across Nigeria through public sensitization and media outreach. But awareness is no longer enough. We must build a physical sanctuary for health. We are raising funds to establish a state-of-the-art Free Cervical Cancer Screening and Vaccination Center in Abuja. This center will house advanced testing machinery (like the Roche Cobas 4800) and routinely distribute free vaccines to 50,000 young girls. Our 6-Step Lifesaving Strategy: Your donations will directly power a structural pipeline of total care: 1. Free Sensitization: Wiping out stigma in secondary schools and rural villages. 2. Free High-Tech Screening: High-accuracy early HPV detection. 3. Free HPV Vaccination: Immunising girls to stop the cancer before it ever starts. 4. Free Case Management: Structural guidance and medical oversight. 5. Free Re-Screening: Ongoing checkups to maintain long-term health. 6. Free Follow-Up Care: Never leaving a diagnosed patient to navigate treatment alone. Where Your Money Goes: We are committed to absolute transparency and accountability. SaliHoe Foundation holds a SCUML Certificate issued by the EFCC. Your contribution helps fund: • The Center's Infrastructure: Brick-and-mortar development of the facility in Abuja. • Advanced Equipment: Purchasing automated testing systems and medical cold-chains for vaccines. • Clinical Operations: Direct costs for vaccines, testing kits, and training specialized medical staff. Alone we can do very little, but together we can achieve an 80% reduction in cervical cancer incidence in Nigeria by 2030. Please, save a life, save a cervix, and help us make cervical cancer history. Donate today and share this link with your network! Thank you.

Build 6 Free Cervical Cancer and Crisis Care Centres Across Nigeria. THE CAMPAIGN STORY: Cervical cancer is killing thousands of Nigerian women every single year, yet it is a disease that is completely preventable [health]. In Nigeria, a woman's access to life-saving cancer screenings depends entirely on her geography and her pocket. In our remote villages, water-locked creeks, and underserved communities across the nation, millions of women have never seen a screening kit. Worse still, for thousands of women and young girls who are survivors of Gender-Based Violence (GBV), domestic incest, and forced harmful traditional practices like Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), traditional healthcare is a place of terror. The intimidating, clinical environment of a standard pelvic exam acts as an immediate trauma trigger. They panic, stay silent, and run away from medical help—leaving high-risk HPV and undetected reproductive infections to ravage their bodies in secret. The SaliHoe Foundation is drawing a line in the sand. We are launching a historic national mission to establish six permanent, free Cervical Cancer Screening and Trauma-Informed Care Centres—one in each of Nigeria's six geopolitical zones THE 6-ZONE DEPLOYMENT BLUEPRINT These centres will not be standard, cold hospital rooms. They will be safe, respectful spaces designed to provide state-of-the-art screening alongside deep emotional healing. * 1. South-South Zone (The Riverine Rescue Hub): Anchored in the Niger Delta creeks to provide specialized maritime rescue transit coordination, trauma counseling for incest survivors, and advanced HPV DNA testing using private self-collection kits. * 2. South-East Zone (The Community-Based Protection Center): Focused on rural agrarian communities to dismantle deep-seated cultural FGM cutting sweeps through alliances with market women networks and mobile legal clinics. * 3. South-West Zone (The Urban-Peripheral Equity Center): Strategically located to capture displaced women and marginalized inner-city demographics struggling with zero healthcare access. * 4. North-Central Zone (The Advocacy & Legislative Hub): Based near the capital territory to combine direct rural screening loops with macro policy brief development for national healthcare reforms. * 5. North-East Zone (The Humanitarian Care Center): Specially equipped to handle reproductive healthcare and cancer prevention for women and girls in Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps who have survived conflict-related violence. * 6. North-West Zone (The Cultural Literacy & Maternal Hub): Tailored to navigate deeply conservative rural spaces, utilizing non-literate instructional tools and female healthcare cadres to provide screening with maximum privacy and dignity. THE TWO-ENGINE INNOVATION: PRIVACY AND TECHNOLOGY Our centres will pioneer a model that puts power back into the hands of the women themselves: 1. HPV Self-Collection Kits: We are completely eliminating the fear of invasive, scary clinical procedures. At our centres, women are handed private self-sampling kits. They collect their own test samples by themselves, in a private, stress-free room, with zero shame and zero re-traumatisation. 2. Advanced Transition Care: While we start with traditional Pap smears, these centres will actively transition into advanced Liquid-Based Cytology (LBC) and HPV DNA testing to catch pre-cancerous cells years before they develop into disease. THE 100% DIRECT FIELD FUNDING PROMISE (0% ADMIN OVERHEAD) We respect the sacrifice of our donors. SaliHoe Foundation absorbs 100% of all administrative overhead, office leases, and executive management salaries internally through our existing institutional matching funds. Every single dollar, euro, or pound you donate to this campaign goes entirely to funding the free centres: * 100% goes into bulk procurement of HPV Self-Collection kits and laboratory processing reagents. * 100% goes into buying medical-grade textured 3D silicone anatomical models for oral health education. * 100% goes into equipping safe, comfortable counseling rooms for clinical psychologists and survivor mentors. * 100% goes into funding frontline outreach tools to pull vulnerable women into care. No woman should have to choose between her dignity and her life. No young girl should die of a preventable cancer because fear kept her away from a clinic. Please donate today to help us build these six walls of defense across Nigeria. Share this campaign with your friends, your families, your philanthropic groups, and your international networks. Stand in solidarity with Nigerian women! Thank you.

Update on Our Mission: Expanding Cervical Cancer Screenings and Global Recognition Dear Donors and Supporters, We are incredibly grateful for your continued generosity, which keeps our life-saving work moving forward on the ground in Nigeria. Because of you, we are continuing to screen women, vaccinate young girls, and integrate cervical cancer prevention directly into rural primary health centres. Here are a few major milestones we are excited to share with you: ● Global Research Presentation: We recently presented our peer-reviewed research and abstracts at the prestigious International Papillomavirus Society (IPVS) Conference. This global platform allowed us to share our successful Nigerian models for grassroots screening and community awareness with leading scientists and healthcare policymakers from around the world. ● Award-Winning Impact: Our team was honored with the Prestigious Angie Courage Award Open Contest 2024, hosted by For Communities by Communities. This award recognizes our efforts in reducing vaccine-preventable cancers by empowering local community-based organizations (CBOs) through storytelling and engagement. ● Growing Global Network: Our founder and chairperson, Ms. Onwukeme, was recently accepted as an official member of the German Cancer Society (Member #B64730), further connecting our grassroots mission with international oncology standards. What's Next? As we continue our ongoing screenings across the South West, North Central, and South East zones, our focus remains on reaching the next 10,000 women who lack access to screening and point-of-care medical treatment. Thank you for standing with us in the fight against cervical cancer. Please share our GoFundMe link with your network to help us keep this momentum going! With gratitude, The Sali Hoe Foundation Team
