About Sixtus Aid

Public health work built on trust, not lectures.

Our story

Started by people who saw the gap firsthand.

Sixtus Aid Network Initiative began with a simple observation: many of the health problems facing Nigerian communities weren't a lack of information — they were a lack of safe spaces to talk, ask questions and be heard without judgment.

What started as informal conversations in a handful of neighbourhoods has grown into a structured public-health advocacy and mental-health awareness campaign, working across community outreach, education and direct support.

Mission

To promote public health, prevent disease and advocate for healthier communities through education, outreach and support.

Vision

A Nigeria where every community has the knowledge, support and dignity to make healthier choices.

What guides us

Our core values

Compassion

We meet people without judgment, especially in their hardest moments.

Integrity

We're honest about what we can offer and transparent in how we work.

Community

Solutions are stronger when they're built with, not for, communities.

Empowerment

We equip people with tools to make their own informed choices.

Accountability

We track our impact and own our shortcomings just as openly.

Impact

Every program is measured by real change in real communities.
