Reflecting on the new year…
Recovered from the hustle and bustle of the holidays? Take a look at who we are and connect with us in our work for the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign. The Campaign was launched in 2006 by the Stephen Lewis Foundation in response to the crisis grandmothers in Africa faced, struggling to raise millions of grandchildren orphaned by AIDS.

Greater Van Gogos started the same year. Grandmothers throughout the region rallied to fundraise, raise awareness and stand in solidarity with their African sisters.
