Welcome to the 13Campaign

In November 2005, AWDF launched a HIV/AIDS Fund in order to increase the amount of resources available to women's groups in Africa working on HIV/AIDS. The 13 Campaign was conceptualised by one of AWDF's guests at the launch, Dr. Musimbi Kanyoro, Executive Secretary of the World YWCA, a global movement of 25 million women and girls in 124 countries.

The Campaign seeks to use the number 13, to get individuals and groups to mobilise thirteen others, and also to make donations with the number 13 in mind. People can, therefore, make a donation of US$13, US$130, US$1,300, US$130,000,000 etc.
