Bracelet of Hope

Bracelet of Hope Bracelet of Hope is a grassroots organization that engages Canadians in it's fight against HIV/AIDS i Tsepong was the first HIV/AIDS clinic in Lesotho, Africa.

In September of 2008, the Bracelet of Hope Campaign reached it’s first target. In partnership with OHAfrica, a project of the Ontario Hospital Association, Bracelet of Hope raised $ 1 million in support of the Tsepong Clinic. Established in 2004 by the outstanding OHAfrica team, this clinic was administrated and funded by OHAfrica until the spring of 2010. Dr. Anne-Marie Zajdlik was a member of th

e OHAfrica medical team and the OHAfrica Board of Directors. Now administrated by the government of Lesotho, the Tsepong clinic continues to provide high quality medical care to the 21,000 HIV positive patients it supports. With OHAfrica’s mandate complete, Bracelet of Hope will continue in it’s efforts to reach it’s second target: One African Country- AIDS free. By placing a bracelet on the wrist of every Canadian, Bracelet of Hope will strive to end the AIDS pandemic in Lesotho by raising funds and awareness with the campaign’s signature symbol, the Bracelet of Hope. We are committed to assisting the Basotho people in ending the AIDS pandemic in their country.

Some things are forgotten in a day. This is remembered for a lifetime. 💙

$10 a month might feel small to you, but to the 36 children in our care, it’s a massive promise. It’s a promise of safety, transportation, and a community that shows up for them every single month. 🚌

We’re in the final days of our campaign to find 50 founding donors. We aren’t looking for huge cheques—we’re looking for a huge community of people who believe that “small” gifts add up to big change.

Help us cross the finish line. Join Hope for Homes for just $10/month at the link in our bio.

Smiling because we’re officially halfway there! 😄

We’ve hit a massive milestone in our journey with Hope for Homes, but the “homestretch” is where the real magic happens. We are looking for our final group of 25 supporters to help us cross the finish line!

💡 The Power of $10

You don’t need to be a mogul to make a monumental difference. We aren’t just looking for huge grants—we’re looking for a community.

Just $10 a month—the cost of a coffee and a snack—provides the steady, reliable support we need to keep our foster homes operating.

It’s about consistency over quantity. When we stand together, small monthly gifts build a permanent foundation. 💙

🏃‍♂️ Join the Homestretch

Whether it’s $10 or $50, your support is the final push we need.
