The Freeheart Africa Reach Out Foundation, with funding from the TY Danjuma Foundation, is retraining 30 primary healthcare workers in Kaduna State on maternal and child nutrition. With 1 in 2 children in the state currently stunted according to UNICEF, this 2-day training, supported by the Kaduna State Primary Healthcare Board, is a critical step in curbing malnutrition. The program concludes on April 25, 2026. #tydf #tydfimpact

The TY Danjuma Foundation, in partnership with the Teacher Aid Initiative, has successfully commenced the first day of a specialized teachers’ training program in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State. The training opened with an impressive turnout of 158 educators and key stakeholders, all focused on a shared commitment to improving the quality of instruction and strengthening STEM education across the state. The program began with an opening address by Adeola Ojeleye, Founder of the Teacher Aid Initiative, who welcomed participants and emphasized the necessity of equipping teachers with innovative, learner-centered methods and the ability to use improvised materials in the classroom. This was followed by a goodwill message from the Permanent Secretary of the Akwa Ibom State Universal Basic Education Board, who commended the initiative and reaffirmed the Board’s support for teacher development. Representatives from the TY Danjuma Foundation also expressed their continued dedication to partnerships that enhance teacher capacity and promote sustainable learning outcomes. A major highlight of the day was an expert panel session featuring representatives from the University of Uyo, the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria, the Ministry of Education, and the TY Danjuma Foundation. The panel discussed critical issues including teaching standards, teacher professionalism, and inclusive education. The rest of the day was dedicated to interactive, hands-on sessions where teachers worked on practical projects using locally available resources to create teaching aids for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. The first day concluded with a reflective wrap-up session, leaving participants with practical skills to immediately improve their classroom delivery. #tydf #tydfimpact

Restoring sight and renewing hope in Taraba State! ✨ In March, the TY Danjuma Foundation, in partnership with Care Vision Support Initiative, reached over 2,600 people in Kurmi and Wukari LGAs of Taraba State with free, life-changing eye care services. From providing corrective glasses to performing 163 sight-restoring surgeries, we are proud to align with Nigeria’s National Eye Health Policy to eliminate avoidable blindness. For beneficiaries like Mr. Abubakar, who can now see clearly after his cataract surgery, this intervention is a second chance at independence. We remain dedicated to strengthening local capacity and ensuring quality eye health services reaches our underserved communities. #tydf #tydfimpact

This intervention targeted pregnant and lactating women and included critical malnutrition screening for children under five to ensure early identification and referral of at-risk cases.

Strict Adherence: For those diagnosed, daily medicated drops are the only way to halt progression. Consistency is non-negotiable. Don't wait for a sign that may never come. Early detection is the only way to save your sight. #WorldGlaucomaWeek2026 #WHO #tydf #tydfimpact

Clinical Care Tips: Comprehensive Screening: A standard vision test is insufficient. You require a dilated eye exam to check your optic nerve and eye pressure. Genetic Risk: If a first-degree relative has glaucoma, your risk increases four to ten-fold.

Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, yet according to the World Health Organization, half of those living with the condition are entirely unaware of it. By the time symptoms are noticeable, up to 40% of optic nerve fibres may already be destroyed.

The TY Danjuma Foundation, in partnership with Care Vision Support Initiative and other key stakeholders, will commence a comprehensive Free Eye Care Intervention in Baissa, Kurmi LGA of Taraba State, from March 23 – 27, 2026. See more details: linkedin.com/posts/ty-danju…
