Championing health and human rights with community-based partners to respond to the AIDS pandemic in sub‑Saharan Africa.
We’re so pleased to welcome you to our new Stephen Lewis Foundation website. Our goal is to create an easy-to-navigate, dynamic hub for our engaged and growing SLF community. Please check regularly for updates and insights from our supporters and partners, and to find out how you can act in solidarity. Visit our donations page for a welcoming new design there as well. We’re always happy to hear from you: info@stephenlewisfoundation.org.
