Party For a Purpose!

Slum Doctor Programme is proud to kick off our Party For a Purpose Campaign!  By hosting Bead parties in your home you can help raise money for AIDS widows in Uganda.  You can also help by purchasing the beads directly from our site.  The money goes to helping these women pay to send their children to school and obtain health care, as well as support a sustainable livlihood for them.  Click to find out how to register to host a party and buy beads!

School Curriculum

In 2007, Slum Doctor Programme developed a program to educate people in the US about the extent and scope of the global AIDS crisis. Since then, we have educated thousands about the relationship between poverty, orphans, gender inequality, and the spread of HIV/AIDS. It has been our hope to initiate a conversation in our schools, homes, and public places about a shared responsibility for the well being of the world -- for those suffering unnecessarily from a preventable and treatable disease.
