The Kamloops CanGo Grannies are a group of women dedicated to raising funds and awareness of the plight of African Grandmothers, who having buried their own children, must support and raise their own grandchildren and the grandchildren of their villages.

The Kamloops women were the first in Canada to form a group committed to support the Stephen Lewis Foundation’s many projects for grandmothers in Africa caring for the children orphaned by the AIDS pandemic. Since its inception in March, 2004, the Kamloops Grannies have raised over $50,000 for the Foundation, and continue to loan their voices to the desperate cry for help half a world away.
