5 AMAZING AFRICAN LADIES THAT MUST BE CELEBRATED FOR THEIR SELFLESSNESS

● Iya Bekondo

Iya Bekondo, through her Foundation called The Iya Foundation – Kidney Resource Center has been very pivotal in engineering countless campaigns for kidney patients over the years. Her drive and motivation is based on her real life experience as she had a kidney transplant at a young adolescent age and has since then has been a blessing to many.

It is true they say that “only the one who wears a shoe, knows what spot that hurts most”, but you can at least imagine what it will feel like to be without a kidney.

Iya and her team have been powering, supporting and educating many facing this challenge by proving medical equipment to kidney centers in Cameroon worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to assist dialysis patients as well as providing financial support to kidney patients in the US and Cameroon.

For this, we wish The Iya Foundation more strength to keep doing the good work that they do as they go into a new year.
