About Us

Medicaid Cancer Foundation (MCF) was conceived out of the need to create a much-needed support system for patients, families and caregivers dealing with cancer in Nigeria. Operations began in 2009. Over time the foundation has become a platform where the challenges affecting cancer patients in Nigeria is tackled with collective and sustained efforts. We work on cancer’s full continuum – from diagnosis, to the myriad questions and answers associated with treatment and care, through the journey to full survivorship, to managing the life- changing experience for the patients, families and caregivers.
