Partnerships with Institutions

Collaboration is key to achieving our goals. We actively seek partnerships with like-minded organizations, both within the Igala community and beyond, to amplify our impact and reach. Together, we work towards common goals of community development, education, and healthcare.

Medical Supplies Donations

Access to quality medical supplies is essential for maintaining good health and well-being. We collaborate with healthcare institutions and organizations to donate essential medical supplies to hospitals, clinics, and communities in need, both locally and in Igala land.

Health Assistance

Health is a fundamental human right. Igala Association USA is dedicated to improving healthcare access and outcomes for Igala individuals both in the USA and in our homeland. We offer support for medical expenses, access to healthcare services, and health education initiatives.
