On October 8, 2024, Ikoyi Club 1938 donated Five Million Naira (#5,000,000) to the Rotary Club of Ikoyi in support of a 3-day breast cancer awareness and screening program. This initiative aims to aid the fight against breast cancer by providing essential health services to women in local communities who have limited access to healthcare. Recognizing the critical role of women in society, Ikoyi Club 1938 partnered with the Rotary Club of Ikoyi to raise awareness about the importance of regular breast screenings for early detection and diagnosis, which can be lifesaving.

The regular breast screenings are essential for early detection of breast cancer, significantly increasing the chances of successful treatment and survival. Routine exams can identify cancer at an early stage, even before symptoms appear, which leads to more treatment options and less invasive procedures. For women, especially those in high-risk categories, undergoing regular breast screening is a proactive step toward maintaining health and preventing life-threatening complications.

During the cheque presentation, Ikoyi Club Chairman Mr. Tafa Zibiri-Aliu, along with Vice Chairman Mr. Rufai Ladipo, General Manager/CEO Dr. Babatunde Orungbeja, and club member Mr. Afolabi Balogun, represented the club.

The President of the Rotary Club of Ikoyi, Rtn. Emmanuel Ibukun Efuntayo, expressed heartfelt gratitude for the generous support, alongside Rtn. Edith Omo-Osagie, center manager of Lagos City Mall and a club member. They emphasized the positive impact of the partnership and prayed for continued blessings for Ikoyi Club 1938.
