Who we are

A Ghanaian NGO built around access.

Founded by a practising clinician at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, we take free healthcare to the communities the system reaches last.

How we began

It started with a clinician who saw who was missing.

Ziora Foundation is a Ghanaian non-governmental organisation, founded by a practising clinician at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, Ghana's largest national referral centre.

The work began in 2025, with our first community programmes delivered ahead of formal registration in March 2026.

Why we exist

The people most in need of care are the last to receive it.

We take our services directly to schools, churches and rural communities, removing the distance, cost and stigma that keep people from care. Our three health arms, maternal & child health, dental health and mental health, reflect the three most underprovided areas of community healthcare in Ghana.

Clinician-led

Every programme is led by qualified clinicians, so the care people receive in a school hall meets the standard they would expect in a hospital.

Community-based

We deliver through the institutions people already trust: their schools, churches and community organisations.

Free at the point of care

Cost is never a barrier to the people we serve. Donors and partners cover it, so patients never pay.

“Prevention is always possible. What is not yet equal is access to the services that make it real.”
