Gogo is the Zulu word for grandmother. It's a term that has been adopted by a group of women in my neighbourhood - we call ourselves the South Fraser Gogos. We are not all grandmothers but we are all of that certain age and deeply concerned about the burden being carried by the grandmothers of Africa. HIV/AIDS has decimated their adult children, leaving behind some 13 million orphans. Where there is a grandmother there is a bottomless well of love. But they cannot do it alone. While the love is bottomless, their actual resources are apallingly scant. They desperately need our help. This section of the life-well-spent site is dedicated to giving a little more profile to the cause and encouraging you to order some of the great products we sell to raise funds for our African sisters. Net proceeds from all sales are donated to the Grandmother to Grandmother Campaign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation.
