St Linus Renal Care Initiative (SLRCI) remains committed to promoting kidney health and advocating for people already living with the disease. Our preventive programs include awareness campaigns, free Hypertension, Diabetes and CKD clinic with subsidized laboratory tests and medicines for diabetes and hypertension.
In the last few months, we have continued to provide preventive care and kidney health education in our community and through our social medial platforms. The World Kidney Day on March 12th was a success! We partnered with a public tertiary institution in Delta State, Nigeria, to offer health education, free CKD screening, Water Bottles and education leaflets to about 150 people who work in heat exposed conditions- traders, street hawkers, bike and tricycle riders, and other artisans.
Due to limited resources, we still struggle to assist people already living with advanced kidney disease requiring dialysis or kidney transplant. While we hope for a brighter future, SLRCI remains committed to her vision and will continue to work within its resources to improve the lives of people living with CKD.
Your support has been instrumental to our successes so far, but we can definitely do more with your help!
