Mbakuran Vaakaa Cancer Foundation also known as MVC Foundation is a non-governmental, non-profit making, non-religious and non-partisan organization that was founded out of passion when Mbakuran Vaakaa died of cancer. Her children thought it wise that, there’s need to establish a foundation in her name that will educate, create awareness and sensitize the general public on cancer and other illnesses like tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, Malaria etc and cater for the wellbeing of the infected persons hence most of those infected die as a result of lack of information/care. Since her establishment, MVC Foundation has been carrying out self-funded programs such as awareness campaign and sensitization on Cancer, Tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, Malaria and free HIV testing services and referrals. Distribution of treated mosquitos nets, condoms, hand gloves etc both in rural and urban areas at various schools, IDP camps, government establishments and communities in Benue State including hard-to-reach areas using our lean resources and support from individuals and corporate organizations.
