Sponsor a patient

₦15,000,000 covers one patient's complete journey - assessment, open heart surgery, intensive care, and follow-up for a year afterwards. Sponsor one patient, or fund a programme of ten, twenty, or more. Your sponsorship will be fully documented and reported to you.

What ₦15,000,000 pays for

A sponsorship funds a patient, not a procedure. Nothing in this list is billed to the family.

Stage of care
Included
Before surgery
Echocardiography, CT imaging where indicated, laboratory investigations and specialist cardiac review and pre-operative preparation.
Surgery
Open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, theatre and anesthetic care, cardiac consumables, and blood support as required.
After surgery
Intensive care management, ward recovery, physiotherapy, post-operative medication and repeat investigations.
Sponsor matching
Only after the case is clinically confirmed is it matched to a sponsor or to the Gold Star Cardiac Surgery Initiative Fund.
Going home
Six to twelve months of follow-up with the same cardiac team, and practical support for the family throughout.

A case-specific clinical and financial breakdown is prepared for every patient andshared with the sponsor before funds are committed.

Gracespring Medical Team

What a sponsor gets back

Cardiac surgery is one of few forms of giving where the result is unambiguous: a person who would have deteriorated is repaired, and goes home. That makes it usually straightforward to report on.

A defined, mesurable outcome

One sponsorship, one named patient, one documented operation, one recorded result.

Full financial traceability

Funds tied to a specific case with documented cost breakdown and case by case reconcillatiion

Capacity built in Nigeria

Support strengthens a permanent local cardiac service rather than funding a one-off visit.

Material you can publish

Outcome summaries and - only where the family has consented - photographs and their own words.

What we send you

Every sponsorship receives the same reporting package, on the same schedule.

1

Case summary

Before surgery: the diagnosis in plain language, the proposed procedure and cost breakdown.

2

Recovery update

After the acute admission: how the operation went and how the patient is recovering

3

Outcome summary

The medical result and the follow-up plan, once the patient is home

4

The Family's own words

Where the family consents, a message written in their hand, addressed to you.
