The Mosaic on my front page is called "The Mosaic of Hope"
Since its launch, more than 220 groups of Canadian grandmothers have taken up the call to action and the campaign has raised over $7 million. The Stephen Lewis Foundation directs these funds to community-level organizations in 15 sub-Saharan African countries that provide grandmothers with much needed support, such as food, housing grants, school fees for their AIDS orphaned grandchildren and grief counseling.
I donated the Mosaic of Hope to The Eastside Grannies of Sherwood Park as a fund raiser. I was thrilled that on Saturday October 23/2011,it was sold at an art auction for a large amount, with all proceeds going to the Foundation.
