Social determinants of health play a vital role in the health outcomes of any given individual or population. Social status, gender inequities, gender/sexual-based violence, poverty, and economic vulnerability are among those salient factors limiting access to health care to women in many parts of the world.
At The Way Foundation, we recognize the gender/sex differences between men and women. We also acknowledge that in many parts of the world, gender inequities have relegated women to the background and, worse, still forced many of these women to be shadows of themselves. Unfortunately, even access to basic health care is non-existent to many rural women,thus compounding an already dire situation.
This apparent gender-based dichotomy in both access to and outcome of health systems has left many women circling a seemingly never-ending wheel of generational low self-esteem, vulnerability, and poverty.
Here at The Way Foundation, we are dedicated to “Fixing Her Crown” by taking basic women’s health services to the rural woman where “she” lives, interacts, and works. We understand that while one woman’s crown may be missing a piece, another might have lost her’s altogether. Therefore, we offer a person-centered approach to “Fixing” or “Finding” her Crown. Our services cut across primary through tertiary prevention while addressing those psychosocial factors.
So far within the past two years, we have impacted well over 2000 girls/women in Cameroon and Tchad; Africa and have no intentions of stopping as we envision a world in which equitable access to health care is a reality.

Training and skill building: The Way Foundation builds a better and more sustainable response toward the communities we serve through training and partnerships with several health modules. We strengthen global health capacities and increase well-being and health outcomes through these thorough classes conducted by certified trainers on a variety of medical topics. Partnerships and training initiatives help strengthen the community’s overall health through basic preventative health screenings, mental health care, and health information/education/communication. Partnering and training with community leaders help increase the resilience of the impact on each community and provide them with a more stable and reliable healthcare foundation.

FA/CPR (First Aid & Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Training): First-response situations often call for both quick thinking and instantaneous mastery of CPR and First-Aid, and the skills associated with them. You never know when an emergency situation may strike, so the only defense is proper preparation. This is what makes CPR and First-Aid Certification so important and in such high demand.
