The Community Heartbeat 5K

THE ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIAN PHYSICIANS IN THE AMERICAS (ANPA), was incorporated in 1995 for educational, scientific, and charitable purposes as a tax-exempt non-profit organization under Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

ANPA represents the professional interests of 4,000 plus physicians, dentists, and allied health professionals of Nigerian birth, ethnicity, or empathy in the United States, Canada, and the Caribbean providing a platform for medical and scientific dialogue, on issues of health within North America, the Caribbean, and Africa, pertinent to persons of descent from the Nigerian Diaspora.

ANPA Georgia is the main association of Nigerian healthcare providers in Georgia, as we are part of a national group, THE ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIAN PHYSICIANS IN THE AMERICAS (ANPA). 

Our goal locally Includes:

- foster personal & professional growth of our members

- encourage the development of practical solutions to Nigerian healthcare problems

- Volunteerism and community outreach.  

We raise funds for our missions and donate to the organization through our 5K race/walk. September is National Sickle Cell Awareness Month. This year, our organization is supporting the Sickle Cell Foundation of Georgia and Nigeria. 

For your generous donation of $20 and above, you will receive one of our Community Heartbeat 5K event T-shirts. You can go to the donate page for all donations. All donations are tax-deductible. Thank you for your support to the Association of Nigerian Physicians in the Americas.
