The Mother & Child Health Centre Outreach, held on June 25, 2025, in Ogombo, Lagos State, was specifically designed to support maternal and child health, one of the core focus areas of Mary Helping Hands Foundation.
Recognizing the importance of quality healthcare during pregnancy and early childhood, the programme provided targeted services for pregnant women, nursing mothers, infants, and young children. Beneficiaries received health assessments, maternal health education, nutritional counseling, child wellness checks, medication support, and referrals where necessary.
The outreach emphasized preventive healthcare, safe motherhood, child nutrition, and early intervention for health concerns affecting mothers and children. Through professional healthcare support and personalized counseling, participants were equipped with valuable information to improve health outcomes for themselves and their families.
Although smaller in scale than some community outreaches, the programme achieved meaningful impact by reaching 103 beneficiaries and delivering specialized care to a critical population group.
