Pistis Foundation has announced its 2026 UBOMI Medical and Surgical Outreach in Lagos, set to take place from October 19 to 23, 2026. The event will offer free medical care to underserved communities, following a successful Ibadan edition in September 2024 that provided 10,292 healthcare interventions to 3,611 beneficiaries. Services will include laboratory tests, consultations, pharmacy interventions, eye care, dental care, surgeries, and health promotion activities.

Leonard F. Thomas, Executive Director of the Foundation, emphasized the foundation's mission to ensure healthcare is accessible to all, regardless of financial means. Pastor Gorman Akinlabi, Board Chairman and Senior Lead Pastor of The Elevation Church, highlighted the foundation's commitment to restoring dignity and improving well-being through compassionate action.

The Lagos outreach will provide services such as general medical consultations, specialist care, lab investigations, dental care, eye examinations, surgeries, and medications. Surgical recipients will undergo eligibility screening. The event will be held at Pistis Annex, Eti-Osa, Lagos, and services will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

The 2026 UBOMI campaign marks a significant milestone for Pistis Foundation, which has conducted nearly 60,000 medical interventions since the outreach began.
