AFRIGRAND CARAVAN

September 24th, 2010
First Unitarian Church,
110 Dundurn St. South, Hamilton
7:30 p.m.


African Grandmothers and Granddaughters will be travelling across Canada from September to November on a tour to engage thousands of Candians as global citizens in the struggle to turn the tide of HIV/AIDS in Africa.

Our special guests are:

Reina Mokgokong and Nkuli Nowathe, from Home Care Nursing Services in Mamelodi, South Africa. Tateni is funded by the Stephen Lewis Foundation and was one of the organizations visited by our Grandmother Delegates (Grandmothers of Steel was proudly represented by Lisbie Rae) during their trip to the African Grandmothers' Gathering.

Regina is a grandmother, nurse and Executive Director of Tateni – and an all-around powerhouse! Nkuli came under the care of Tateni when she lost her mother to AIDS. She speaks passionately about the power of peer support groups and education to help young people protect themselves from HIV.

We look forward to seeing you there.
