This starts with understanding the unique barriers that keep people from meaningful, life-changing care.
We are adapting our approach to HIV care to better support people and communities impacted by the disease to fight and end the HIV epidemic.
Since 2018, we are proud to have launched the Gilead Asia Pacific Rainbow Grant, and to date have provided a total of more than $4.5 million in funding support to 84 organizations spanning over 112 projects in this region.
To improve equitable quality of life for PLHIV, varied responses to tackle stigma and discrimination against HIV must be integrated and people-centric.
We are reaching across cultures, languages, and communities to make sure we end the HIV epidemic for everyone, everywhere.
Our grant program aims to engage communities on quality-of-life topics for PLHIV and persons-at-risk, ultimately resulting in societies that are free of judgment and stigma.
Our grant program aims to empower PLHIV and persons-at-risk to achieve the best quality of life possible. We also empower the community-based organizations to step up their skills and capabilities.
Partnerships and alliances among communities, NGOs, governments and businesses are important as we work on HIV programs that help people with HIV and persons-at-risk live long and healthy lives.
