Welcome to ujufoundation — Restoring Dignity Through Health and Hope.
At ujufoundation, we believe that access to basic healthcare and a life free from the grip of poverty is not a privilege — it’s a fundamental human right. We are a Nigerian non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to improving the quality of life for vulnerable individuals and families, particularly those in underserved communities.
