About us

Nash Foundation was established after I, Natu Suzie Kure, experienced the heartbreaking loss of seven family members to cancer. In 2019, I discovered that two of my aunts were diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer—both of which could have been caught earlier with proper screening. My advocacy for early detection stems from the belief that it could have saved many lives, including those of my relatives. I often think that my aunt might still be here today if she had followed medical advice, if fear and stigma surrounding the disease hadn’t held her back, and if there had been more awareness and education about her condition. Through this foundation, I am committed to ensuring that no woman has to face the same fate.

Vision

What we do

  1. Cancer is surrounded by numerous myths and misconceptions. We are dedicated to raising awareness and providing education about cancer in Nigeria. Our efforts focus on educating the public about breast cancers, actively promoting the importance of prevention and early detection.
  2. We understand that early cancer detection is crucial for effective treatment, and we actively emphasize this in our campaigns. To support this, we organize free medical outreaches, particularly in underserved communities across the country. Additionally, we strongly advocate for routine health checks to empower individuals in managing their well-being.
  3. We provide guidance and practical assistance to women battling breast cancers. This support is made possible through our covener
