Who we are

It started with a simple question

On 26 October 2023, Pharmacist Ogunsusi Samuel Oluwabusayo registered a small foundation with a big conviction: that everyday Nigerians — neighbours, youths, professionals — could become the helping hands their communities were waiting for.

The first outreaches were modest: a handful of volunteers, a table in a market square, basic medicines and free blood-pressure checks. But the response was overwhelming. Elders who had not seen a health worker in years wept quietly as their blood pressure was checked. Parents asked how their children could join. Teachers requested health talks in their schools.

Today, Susi Helping Hands Foundation runs health initiatives, empowerment and education programs, and welfare outreaches across Nigerian communities — powered by volunteers, partners, and donors who believe that service to humanity is the highest form of gratitude.

From 5 friends to a movement

What began as a founding team of five volunteers has grown into a family of dozens of committed hands — medical professionals, educators, organizers, creatives and students — each giving their time, skill and heart.

Our volunteers are our greatest asset. They check blood pressure under mango trees, pack food hampers late into the night, teach skills in community halls, and show up — again and again — wherever Nigerians need a helping hand.
