“I’m proud to be part of the Global Giving Circle—we can have so much more impact as a collective than we can on our own. I’ve seen first-hand how transformative and sustainable m2m’s work is to a woman and her community—when you train and employ a woman living with HIV it unlocks her own power to challenge boundaries and lift up the next generation. Each and every m2m Mentor Mother is a change agent and champion for empowerment.”
Annie Lennox, m2m Patron and Global Giving Circle Member
“Joining the Global Giving Circle is about believing in women, investing in women, and, as they in turn invest in themselves, their families, and communities, building a better future for all. The programme is solidly evidence-based, ensuring all resources have maximum impact. It is an honour to be involved in this journey which is nothing short of inspiring.”

“Being part of the Global Giving Circle has afforded my husband and me the opportunity to experience first-hand the possibility of a healthy, HIV-free future. As parents of four small children, spending time in the company of extraordinary Mentor Mothers, who are transforming lives and families at scale, makes the mission of m2m personal, tangible and palpable. I hope you’ll join me in being amazed.”
Leslie Brunner, Co-Chair, Global Giving Circle U.S.
“The Global Giving Circle offers my husband and me opportunities to interact with those who share our commitment to a healthy, HIV-free generation. Joining other Global Giving Circle members for the m2m Immersive Experience was particularly rewarding; we left Cape Town with a reinforced commitment to m2m, and having made new friendships with like-minded humans who also wish to perpetuate the incredible work that m2m is accomplishing.”

Meet the Global Giving Circle Family
Meet the global network of remarkable philanthropists supporting our work.
“When I founded m2m in 2001, I could only dream of collaborating with such a wonderful community of philanthropists. Twenty years later, I am delighted to have the support of the Global Giving Circle. With their passion for m2m’s work, they are like family. They inspire me and the entire m2m team with their compassion and generosity. The Global Giving Circle has allowed us to innovate and expand our work, so we can reach even more women, girls, mothers, and their families who might otherwise have been left behind. I think this is worth recognising and celebrating.”
