The Stephen Lewis Foundation leaped into existence in 2003 with speed and urgency, in part due to the astonishing outpouring of support from Canadians who want to join the effort to address the horror of the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Africa.
Our Mandate
The Stephen Lewis Foundation funds community-based initiatives in Africa. Our funding works in four areas:
to provide care at the community level to women who are ill and struggling to survive, so that their lives can be free from pain, humiliation and indignity;
to assist orphans and other AIDS-affected children in every possible way, from the payment of school fees to the provision of food;
to support the unsung heroes of Africa, the grandmothers, who bury their own children and care for their orphan grandchildren;
to support associations of people living with HIV/AIDS — courageous men and women who have openly declared their status - so that they can educate themselves and share information with their broader communities on prevention, treatment, care and the elimination of stigma.
