About EGPAF

Nearly four decades of fighting for children, youth, and families affected by HIV.

Our Mission
The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation seeks to end HIV/AIDS globally in children, youth, and families.
Our Story

A global leader in the fight to end pediatric HIV.

EGPAF was founded by Elizabeth Glaser after she and her two children contracted HIV through a blood transfusion. Determined that no other family should face the same devastation, she became one of the most powerful advocates for children affected by HIV.

Today, EGPAF works in countries around the world to prevent HIV transmission to babies, expand access to treatment, and strengthen health systems so families can thrive.

Together with partners and supporters, EGPAF is working toward Generation Zero, the first generation free from pediatric HIV.
