Reel Change Initiative & World AIDS Day: Support Orphans & Vulnerable Children in Ghana
Reformation Community, a youth-led grassroots NGO in collaboration with the United Nations in Ghana, is proud to host the "Reel Change Initiative." This initiative combines advocacy, education, and community support in observance of World AIDS Day and the Activism Against Gender-Based Violence.
Through a unique open-air silent cinema fundraising event on December 1st every year at the Commonwealth Hall Amphitheatre, University of Ghana, Reel Change aims to raise $10,000 (GHS 150,000) to support children made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS. Preceded by the "Yeekyin Chapter" bus tour for mothers and survivors of gender-based violence living with HIV, this campaign brings together private and public sector partners to combat stigma, provide care, and drive meaningful change.
The Challenge
Across Ghana, children affected by HIV/AIDS face overwhelming challenges. Many lack consistent access to essential healthcare services such as antiretroviral therapy and regular medical check-ups. Educational opportunities are often out of reach due to financial constraints, leaving these children with diminished hopes for the future. Mental health challenges, compounded by stigma and social exclusion, further limit their potential. Existing gaps in funding for children’s homes and other support systems place their well-being at risk.
Why It Matters
This initiative goes beyond addressing the immediate needs of children living with or affected by HIV/AIDS. It seeks to dismantle the barriers of stigma, ignorance, and social exclusion. By supporting healthcare, education, and mental health services, Reel Change is giving these children a chance to thrive, breaking the cycle of poverty and vulnerability that affects entire communities.
The funds raised will have a direct and lasting impact, improving access to life-saving medical treatments, ensuring educational continuity, and providing counseling to help children overcome trauma and emotional challenges. By contributing, you are investing in a future where every child—regardless of their circumstances—has the opportunity to live a healthy, fulfilled, and dignified life.
