Foundation Delivers Free Healthcare in Lagos, Nigeria

Why this is here: The Julius Agenmonmen Foundation donated state-of-the-art eye diagnostic equipment to St. Camillus Hospital in Uromi, the hospital where Agenmonmen was born.

Julius Agenmonmen Foundation and Haven Optical recently provided free medical services to roughly 1,000 people in Ikota, Lekki, Lagos, Nigeria. The two-day outreach included dental care, eye exams, lab tests, and general consultations. Many recipients had limited prior access to these types of services and expressed gratitude for the care delivered to their community.

Julius Agenmonmen established the foundation in 2023, after turning 60, as a way to give back. His wife, Dr.

Uche Agenmonmen, envisions expanding future programs to offer HIV testing and prostate cancer screenings. In 2024, the foundation reached over 2,000 people in Delta and Edo States, and also donated eye diagnostic equipment to St. Camillus Hospital in Uromi.

The foundation continues to seek support to establish permanent health centers. While the outreach successfully served many, sustained access to care remains a challenge for underserved communities in Nigeria.
