Welcome to the Home of MAPS and RFFA Australia!

Road MAPS to Africa is a project of the Rotary Club of Coolamon. We invite you to take a look around our MAPS web site and learn about the current situation in Sub-Saharan Africa-then join us on the road to Africa by choosing one of the Road MAPS. This site is also the home of RFFA Australia (Rotarians for Fighting AIDS). Any contribution you care to make now or at any time will be more than appreciated and very well invested.

Grandmothers to Grandmothers

ROAD MAP # 1

The Stephen Lewis Foundation


The Grandmothers to Grandmothers’ campaign seeks to raise awareness and mobilize support in Canada for Africa’s grandmothers. The 'Grandmothers to Grandmothers' campaign was launched on March 7 2006, on the eve of International Women's Day.

Since the launch, more than 150 groups of Canadian grandmothers have taken up the call to action and together have raised over $1 million for the campaign. SLF directs these funds to community-level organizations in 14 sub-Saharan African countries that provide grandmothers with much needed support, such as food, housing grants, school fees for their grandchildren and grief counselling.

We urge the Grandmothers of Australia to join the Grandmothers of Canada.

Support Stephen Lewis and we will send you details on how to navigate this Road MAP to Africa:

Stephen Lewis.
