…Seeks support for vulnerable 
KindPath Reliance Foundation, in collaboration with the Councillor representing Ward B2 in Amuwo-Odofin Local Government Area, Omolara Adeogun, has provided free healthcare services and welfare support to widows in FESTAC Town, Lagos.

The outreach, held at the Ward B2 Secretariat, featured breast cancer awareness, blood sugar checks, blood pressure monitoring and the distribution of consumables.

The Project Manager and Trustee of the foundation, Zainab Oyedele, said the initiative was designed to promote preventive healthcare, improve access to basic health services and raise awareness of conditions requiring early detection and appropriate medical attention.

Oyedele said, “The initiative aimed to encourage preventive healthcare practices and promote greater awareness of health conditions that require early detection and appropriate medical attention.”

She added that the programme also provided an opportunity to acknowledge the challenges faced by widows, particularly those raising children while managing the social and economic demands of family life.

The Founder and Chief Executive Officer of KindPath Reliance Foundation, Adekunle Paul Odebiyi, expressed appreciation to the chief host, Olugbenga Oyerinde, Honourable Commissioner for Special Duties and Intergovernmental Relations, and Adeogun for their support and participation in the initiative.

He also commended the medical personnel, media and welfare volunteers, and other contributors whose efforts helped facilitate the outreach and deliver essential services to members of the FESTAC Town community.

Speaking on the significance of the programme, Odebiyi said, “Sustainable community development requires collective responsibility and continued attention to the welfare of vulnerable groups.”

He noted that initiatives of this nature helped foster stronger community relationships while encouraging greater awareness of health and social welfare needs.

Odebiyi called for sustained collaboration among community leaders, public officials, healthcare professionals, volunteers and other stakeholders to expand access to essential services and build more inclusive communities.

The foundation reaffirmed its commitment to community development and humanitarian support for vulnerable populations, including widows, orphaned children and older people.
