PROJECTS
The Ousman Koro Ceesay Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides access to free healthcare and resources for quality education to underprivileged Gambians.
Free Healthcare
The Ousman Koro Ceesay Foundation is dedicated to offering free, high-quality healthcare services to disadvantaged Gambians. Our comprehensive healthcare program encompasses cost-free medical checkups, vaccinations, and essential medication. Through our bi-annual medical missions, we ensure direct access to high quality medical services and supplies for patients in the Gambia who would otherwise lack such essential care. These missions, lasting 2 to 3 weeks, involve a dedicated team of volunteer physicians and nurses from the United States, as well as local healthcare professionals who provide culturally sensitive care and understand the local systems, language, and needs of the community.
Education
The OKC Foundation aims to contribute to the success and emergence of Gambian higher education graduates who are: academically and socially adept; equipped with the skills needed to become professionals in their fields; and agents of change in their communities, country and beyond. Through its scholarship program, the OKC Foundation aims to improve equitable access to and participation in quality education for both girls and boys.
