The people and the purpose behind the mission

A community-driven foundation working to make sure no life in Cross River State is lost to something that could have been prevented.

Ogar Okrache Save Alive Foundation
Our Story

It started with a single emergency call.

Ogar Okrache Save Alive Foundation began as a small circle of volunteers responding to urgent health needs in communities that had little or no access to care. What we saw on those early visits — families choosing between food and medicine, children walking hours to the nearest clinic — convinced us that this work could not stay informal.

We formalised into a registered foundation, built structured programmes around the needs we kept encountering, and opened the door to volunteers, donors and partners who share the same conviction: that every life is worth fighting for, and that fight is often won or lost in the small, practical things — a bag of rice, a bore hole, a free consultation, a bag of school books.

Today, our work spans health, food security, education, clean water and emergency relief — but the instinct behind it hasn't changed since that first call.

Our Mission

To reach vulnerable individuals and communities across Cross River State with timely health, welfare and empowerment support — and to respond fast when life is on the line.

Our Vision

A Cross River State where no family is left behind — where access to health care, food, education and emergency support is a reality, not a privilege.
