About Us

Our PurposeOur Vision

A Nigeria where mental health care is accessible, stigma-free, and treated with the same importance as physical health.

Why We Exist

Across Nigeria, many people struggle with mental health challenges without access to affordable, compassionate care. Stigma, cost, and limited resources prevent too many individuals and families from getting help.

Amity Foundation was created to respond to Nigeria’s mental health access gap. We bring together healthcare professionals, advocates, educators, and community leaders to provide mental health education, outreach, support, and advocacy.
