About us
The Nigeria Solidarity Support Fund (NSSF) was born from a partnership between the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) and Global Citizen (GC). NSSF is a resource mobilizing platform set up to catalyze the government’s response to challenges resulting from or worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic with the aim of improving health outcomes for vulnerable populations and underserved communities. NSSF responded to the pandemic, delivering innovative COVID-19 vaccines to over 4.9 million Nigerians. In addition, a vaccine campaign was launched reaching more than 12 million Nigerians across six (6) states. NSSF is building on its COVID-19 activities to inform, empower, and support the delivery of priority vaccines to Nigerians with a focus on: • Reducing under 5 childhood mortality rates through improved childhood vaccination in Nigeria. • Improving leadership and governance of Routine Immunization (RI) programs as well as strengthen strategic communication and cross learning in the health sector..

If we could put neatly into a single picture the extent of our work for the year 2024; if we could tell the story of impact in one photo; if we could announce our affiliations in a single slide, this would be our photo of the year. #impactinnumbers #nonprofitinnigeria

The WeNaija Voice Your Change campaign remains a pivotal part of our year and as we close out the year, it is important to reflect on how much we were able to achieve with this campaign with the support of our community, partners, and sponsors. Working in the public health space, capturing the true impact of our work can sometimes prove difficult. However, if we were to measure the impact of the WeNaija Voice Your Change campaign in numbers, here is what it would look like. #WeNaijaVoiceYourChange #Impact #NonprofitinNigeria

Access to quality health insurance remains a significant challenge for many, and one of the biggest barriers is the limited coverage of health insurance services. Whether it's due to geographic location, employment status, income level, or other factors, the lack of inclusive coverage creates a divide that prevents many Nigerians from accessing the care they need. Notably, the Ekiti State Health Insurance Scheme covers different kinds of health needs for persons who fall within the vulnerable population including children, the aged, and sickle cell warriors. #universalhealthcoverage #insurance #ekitixnssf

We are pleased to announce our partnership with the Ekiti State Government to improve the utilisation of health insurance services in the state. Working with young people who make up the Ekiti State Community Health Vanguards, the Nigeria Solidarity Support Fund will be spearheading community-based interventions in the state to improve utilisation of existing health insurance services such as the Basic Health Care Provision Fund and Ulera Wa. #partnership #universalhealthcoverage #healthinsurance #nonprofitinnigeria #publichealth

Many Nigerians, especially those in middle and low-income households often view health insurance as an unnecessary expense. In the slides below, we examine why health insurance really matters. #universalhealthcoverage #healthinsurance #publichealth

In Nigeria, health insurance coverage remains extremely low with only a small percentage of the population having formal coverage. As the country continues to face growing health challenges ranging from infectious diseases to non-communicable diseases, expanding access to affordable and quality healthcare should be a priority. The National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) was established to provide Nigerians with the safety net they need to access healthcare without financial hardship. However, a significant proportion of the population are still not covered, particularly in rural areas and among informal sector workers. #UniversalHealthCoverage #HealthInsurance #SDG3
