To promote their members’ well-being, the alumni conducted free medical check-ups and organized a health enlightenment session. Dr. Maridheeyah Olokodana-Adesalu, UMA Welfare Officer II, encouraged members to prioritize regular health screenings, highlighting their importance in maintaining good health, even amidst the pursuit of livelihoods.
