Foundation Quote by Nwankwo Kanu

“We have partnered with hospitals. We do check-ups. We talk to the parents - we educate them - and at the same time, we take the kids to other countries for operations. The goal of the foundation is to build our own cardiac hospitals in Africa, starting in Nigeria.” quote by Nwankwo Kanu — Download Open image
