About Grandmothers to Grandmothers
- When a need was seen, an organization was born...
- This campaign was started in March, 2006 by the Stephen Lewis Foundation to raise awareness of and support for grandmothers in Africa. Because of the HIV/AIDS pandemic a whole generation has died leaving orphans to either fend for themselves or taken into care by their grandmothers.
These grandmothers are themselves grieving the loss of their children and now are raising their grandchildren. Although with little financial means they are very resourceful and with support can provide food and education for children in their care.
