Celebrate 18 Years of PWN

Eighteen years ago, a group of women and gender diverse people living with HIV decided that the systems making decisions about their lives needed to hear directly from them. Not from their doctors. Not from their case managers. From them.


That decision became PWN-USA — the only national membership organization led by and for women and gender diverse people living with HIV. Eighteen years later, the work is still led by the same people it was built to serve.


This June, we are celebrating that legacy with 18 Voices of PWN, a month-long birthday campaign featuring the stories of the members, donors, and community leaders who have made this organization what it is. Every voice in this campaign represents something PWN has protected, built, or made possible over 18 years: policy wins, trained advocates, sustained community, and a movement that has never stopped growing.


Your gift today is a birthday gift to that legacy, and an investment in the next 18 years.


How to give:

$18 — Community Supporter. A gift that says: I see what you've built.

$180 — Movement Builder. The core of what sustains this work.

$1,800 — Leadership Gift. A founding-level investment in the next chapter.


Guardian Circle — any monthly amount. PWN's recurring giving program. Eighteen years of this movement were built on sustained commitment. Join the donors who make that continuity possible, at $15, $18, $25, or any monthly amount that works for you.


PWN-USA operates under the Movement Strategy Center, which is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN: 20-1037643). All gifts are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
