Kingston Grandmother Connection

We love hearing about MusicWorks in Capetown, South Africa!
Their work is about creating spaces of safety, healing and connection through music, for children and youth. One of many community based organizations supported by The Stephen Lewis Foundation ❤
And we know that happier children make happier grandmothers!

Last evening Kingston Grandmother Connection celebrated our 20th year of fundraising for our sister grandmothers in Africa and their families ❤❤❤
An evening of fun, speakers, socializing, celebrating, fellowship. We know the need is still there, so we are feeling renewed and ready for the future!

Everyone likes chocolate!

I visited the Kingston Grandmother Connection spring market last Saturday, where they were raising funds for Stephen Lewis Foundation’s Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign, which supports grandmothers and their families across Africa.

Many tired but happy grandmothers and grandothers this morning ☺
Our SPRING mini-Market on Saturday was a huge success and we thank all of our volunteers as well as our supportive Kingston community ❤❤
We even had a couple of special guests stop by!

A reminder of this special event

Please join us for Honouring Stephen Lewis. Through this link you can watch his memorial live online on April 26 at 11 a.m. (Eastern Time) / 6 p.m. (East Africa Time), from Toronto, Canada: theslf.org/Honouring-Stephen-Lewis-Memorial-Livestream

Stephen believed in the power of collective action and in the profound impact of standing together in solidarity. This gathering will be an opportunity to honour his extraordinary life, reflect on the lives he touched, and reaffirm the shared purpose that continues to guide us.

The video will go live when the memorial begins. If you are not able to join us live, a recording will be made available as soon as we are able.
