The St. Andrew's Grandmothers Helping African Grandmothers will be co-hosting the launch of Powered by Love with the Victoria Grandmothers 4 Africa and Tanners Books.  In 2006, a group of Grandmothers from St. Andrew's joined the Stephen Lewis Foundation campaign to engage Canadian grandmothers to support African sisters.  The Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign, now a movement 10,000 strong, has raised over $25 million that has gone directly into the hands of African grandmothers and the grassroots organizations run by and for them at the frontlines of the AIDS pandemic.  Powered by Love reveals the compelling journey of these indomitable women and a movement that now reaches around the globe, sharing their story in their own words.  The book launch will take place on NOVEMBER 7th from 2 - 4 p.m. in the church hall.  Speakers will include Grandmothers from Africa.  Speakers will include Grandmothers from Africa and Joanna Henry, author of the book and Director of Learning and Resource Development at the Stephen Lewis Foundation
