Thirteen million children have been orphaned by AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa. This Mother's Day, we honour the millions of mothers who have died unnecessarily and the hundreds of thousands of grandmothers who have become mothers again to their orphan grandchildren.
The Stephen Lewis Foundation invites you to attend the premiere of A Generation of Orphans. This half-hour documentary gives voice to six orphans and the grassroots organizations that work valiantly on their behalf; highlighting their hardship, hope and courage as they struggle with the loss of their parents to AIDS.
Following the screening, Stephen Lewis and African grandmothers from SLF-supported projects will discuss the lives of orphans and vulnerable children in Africa.
RSVP required by May 1st to rsvp@stephenlewisfoundation.org. Questions? Call (416)533-9292 ext. 0. Seating for this event is general admission. This event is by invitation only and is not open to the public.
The Isabel Bader Theatre is located next to Museum subway station. Limited parking is available under Rowell Jackman Hall at 85 Charles St. West and surrounding area.
A Generation of Orphans is the second film in a trilogy about the Stephen Lewis Foundation's work to support grandmothers, orphans and women in sub-Saharan Africa
