mothers2mothers (m2m) is a proudly African NGO that unlocks the power of women to end health inequities. We employ, train, and support women living with HIV as frontline health workers across sub-Saharan Africa—called Mentor Mothers. These women deliver life-saving health services, educate communities, and create brighter futures for millions of families. Since 2001, m2m has reached over 17 million women and children with critical health services and support, proving that when women lead, communities thrive. We have also partnered with governments on more than 10 major initiatives to scale our impact. Now, at a time of unprecedented disruption to funding models for NGOs, we are more determined than ever to achieve our dream of helping to end the HIV/AIDS pandemic by 2030, and create a future where health for all creates opportunity for all. That vision requires bold philanthropic investment — and that’s where you come in. For more information, visit www.m2m.org
