PROJECT PINK BLUE

Project PINK BLUE is a cancer fighting organization engaged in cancer awareness, patient navigation, fundraising for indigent cancer patients, cancer research and access to palliative. We are on a journey to change the way Africans think about cancer. Registered in 2014 as Health & Psychological Trust Centre (nonprofit) and founded Project PINK BLUE Venture as for profit in 2016. We passionately serve indigent cancer patients who live in hard-to-reach communities in Nigeria. We launched Nige... ria’s first patient navigation with toll free telephone (08000CANCER) and the trained 42 patient navigators across FCT Abuja. We founded Abuja breast cancer support group and a palliative care programme for women battling with metastatic breast cancer through the SPARC grant from Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) & Pfizer oncology. With the assistance of over 300 volunteers, 26 cancer survivors, corporate partners and technical support from the Nigeria’s Federal Ministry of Health, we are stimulating actions against cancer. Our impacts earned us the prestigious and noble Nelson Mandela-Graca Machel Innovation Award, Johannesburg, South Africa (bit.ly/NelsonMandelaGMAward); Global Shapers Community Abuja I AM BOLD Award, Shape Africa 2014; Semi-finalist in the Big C Competition by LiveSTRONG, Austin, TX, USA (bit.ly/BigCPrize) and Winner, SPARC MBC Challenge award 2015, Lisbon, Portugal (bit.ly/SPARCAward).More
