In addition to the operation and kits for aftercare, the bank launched a rehabilitation program aimed at assisting these ladies in getting back on their feet.

The lender claims that the 2024 CR&S Week’s VVF awareness and surgery campaign is in line with its sustainability strategy’s pillars of diversity and inclusion, health and welfare, and education.

“Through FirstBank’s partnership with the state governments, we aim to support the awareness and surgery initiative for this medical condition,” stated Shehu Aliyu, the bank’s executive director of public sector.

We sincerely hope that every young woman gets the opportunity to lead a typical life. You can be confident that FirstBank is totally dedicated to giving women the tools they need to achieve positive health results.

FirstBank stated that its CR&S Week continued to be an important component of its goal to use focused social interventions to promote significant change throughout Nigeria.

FirstBank Group employees (FirstBank Nigeria, FirstBank UK, FirstBank Gambia, FirstBank Sierra-Leone, FirstBank DRC, FirstBank Guinea, FirstBank Ghana, FBNBank Senegal, First Pension, and First Nominees) have the opportunity to donate their time and resources to specific causes during the CR&S Week, which is a dedicated week in accordance with the Bank’s CR&S strategic approach.
