I’m taking part in Stride to Turn the Tide, a national walk organized by Canadian grandmothers and grand”others” for the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation.
I am walking to raise funds for African grandmothers living in communities hardest hit by the AIDS pandemic. These indomitable women are not only caring for their grandchildren orphaned by AIDS , but leading the way in innovative grassroots responses to the pandemic – responses that are transforming their communities and helping to turn the tide of HIV and AIDS.
Help me reach my fundraising goal! Every dollar counts! It’s easy to contribute. All you need to do is click on the link below - or copy and paste it into your browser - and then click on the Donate button in the top-right corner of my walk page.

Every dollar raised and put into the hands of African grandmothers supports their efforts for health care, nutritious food, emotional counselling and a hopeful future for their grandchildren. Thank you for helping me and the grandmothers of Canada Stride to Turn the Tide.
Check back regularly to see how I’m doing!
Thanks so much,
Leslie Mcconnell
