Donate
Make a donation to the Stephen Lewis Foundation and the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign. “As I’ve learned over the last twenty-five years, a few well-placed dollars at community level can restore both hope and resilience, and it’s the women, courageous, loving, indomitable, who provide the leadership at community level. I think of the women of Africa: they are magnificent!” Stephen Lewis speaking at the Women Moving Millions Summit: "The Power of Purpose" September 17, 2015, New York |
