In a bold step to expand healthcare access for women, the Aleeta Foundation and GoWellness have launched a Free Basic Health Insurance Initiative, which will target 1,000 beneficiaries by the end of 2025.
Spearheaded by wellness advocate and GoWellness CEO Dr. Gloria Praise, the initiative provides free maternity care and holistic wellness support for women in underserved communities, including prenatal, delivery, and postpartum services.
“Our goal is simple: to make wellness accessible and affordable for every woman. “Health isn’t just about hospitals—it’s also about prevention, balance, and care that touches every aspect of life,” Dr. Praise said.
GoWellness, with Abuja and Port Harcourt centres, promotes alternative therapies such as fitness programs, aromatherapy, and wellness education, bridging gaps in conventional medical care.
The program kicked off in April with the enrollment of 250 women in Abuja, Lagos, and Port Harcourt. As the project expands over the year, more states will be included.
The initiative is funded by Dr. Praise herself and highlights a private-sector-driven approach to community health.
The partners urge corporate sponsors, development partners, and private citizens to support the program’s growth.
