Our Journey As Social Changer

Four years ago, we started this journey of impacting life-based on the fearful life experience and research done by one of our founders who almost loses it all to high blood pressure(Hypertension). It was not a palatable story based on our finding that hypertension and diabetes; two non-communicable diseases that kill without sign or symptoms and in which millions of Nigerians are battling with it; more than half of the numbers are not aware how deadly these ailments are. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), hypertension and diabetes are responsible for an estimated 45% of adults’ death due to heart diseases; and 51% of deaths due to stroke globally. To end this surge it has to start with you and me, and that is what we are doing at Rays of Hope Support Initiative, raising awareness, providing medical screening, health tips, medication and follow-up. We are asking you to join us and let us join hand in putting a stop to this silent killers.
