About us

Care for communities, together.

Iphamar™ Care Foundation is a registered Nigerian non-profit bringing free medical outreach, food support and scholarships to underserved communities.

Who we are

A registered charity built on one simple conviction.

Iphamar™ Care Foundation (RC 8508696) works to improve healthcare access, nutrition and education for families who are too often left out.

We began with the belief that no one should be denied care because of where they live or what they can afford. From modest beginnings we have grown into a movement that meets communities where they are.

Every clinic held, every family fed and every scholarship awarded is a step toward closing gaps that have persisted for far too long. We work hand in hand with community leaders, volunteers and partners, and our motivation is human: it starts with the person in front of us.

Stephen Adekunle Adeyemi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Iphamar Care Foundation
Our founder

It started with one conviction.

“No one should be denied care because of where they live or what they can afford.”

Iphamar™ Care Foundation was born from that conviction — a small team, a community that needed care, and the decision to start where we were, with what we had. From the first medical outreach to Table of Care and Lifeline of Learning, the mission has never changed: meet people where they are, and treat every person who comes through the door as family.

Today Stephen leads the Foundation’s work across Lagos and Ogun States, working with trustees, volunteers and partners to turn that conviction into clinics held, families fed and scholarships awarded.
