About LetsStopAIDS 

LetsStopAIDS was founded in 2004, by then 15-year old Shamin Mohamed Jr., with a small group of high school students that decided to take on a challenge to educate other young people about HIV globally. The group told their principal their plans and she asked if they were “trying to start a scam or something?” The challenge kept on gaining local and international attention which created a specific goal: to inspire young people affected by HIV to take action, within their local communities.
We focus on HIV prevention and knowledge exchange by engaging young people and fostering leadership.
Our Vision
Zero New HIV Infections: Every youth is given the knowledge, resources, and support necessary to make this vision a reality.
Living Positively: Every youth living or affected by HIV must be given equal, fulfilling leadership opportunities that allow them to live their life.
