A third free clinic in Onosa, Lagos, after 10,494 patients treated at our first two

What you are voting on

We're proposing to use $13,590 from our village pot to turn a donated space in Onosa, Lagos into our third free healthcare clinic.

Our first two clinics in Oworoshoki and Surulere have treated 10,494 patients. Both are still open and still seeing about 300 people a month:

Why Onosa

Onosa is a community on the edge of Lagos with no affordable healthcare. When Tolani, our local partner in Lagos, went out there last year, people told her they had lost neighbours to things that could have been treated. One of the church leaders put it plainly: "We've lost a mother in our community because by the time she got to a hospital, her hypertension was already fatal, and she didn't even know she had high blood pressure."

Every Sunday, volunteer nurses set up a table with a thermometer, a blood pressure machine and whatever medicine they can gather. About 150 people come, but the medicine runs out before the queue does, and from Monday to Saturday there is nowhere to go.

Why we think it will work

We have done this twice before. Safe City opened in Oworoshoki in December 2024, Care Circle in Surulere in October 2025. Both are still open, both see about 300 people a month, and between them they have treated 10,494 patients. A visit costs $1.33, medicine included. Tolani and her team run both clinics, and they would run this one.

What the money does

A church in Onosa has donated a space. It is an unused restroom and storage area, it already meets Lagos State's size rules, and it needs less work than either of the first two did.

If this proposal passes then $13,590 turns the donated space in Onosa into a third clinic and keeps it open for a year. The money goes out in two tranches, first one to build it and one to run it once the build is complete.
