Massey Street Children's

Massey Street Children's Hospital is a state-owned pediatric facility on Lagos Island and the oldest children's hospital in West Africa. Its neonatal unit admits roughly 1,500 babies a year across 9 incubators and 27 cots — making it exactly the kind of high-volume NICU where equipment and supply gaps hit hardest.

OUR BEGINNINGS

My name is Eden, founder and CEO of Tiny Fighters Africa, and a student at Nightingale Bamford School in NYC. I was born prematurely at 29.5 weeks, weighing just under two pounds (1 kilogram). I understand the fragility of life. My survival story is a testament to the power of quality healthcare, a privilege not afforded to all. I believe every child, regardless of where they are born, deserves the chance to thrive. This is the driving force behind Tiny Fighters Africa.
