COLUMBUS, Ind. — A surge in support among young people for a local charity is making a difference in Columbus and on the other side of the globe.
Since 2008, local members of The Granny Connection have worked to aid grandmothers living in the neighborhood of Matero, located in the African country of Zambia, who serve as primary caregivers of grandchildren orphaned by HIV/AIDS.
As an affiliate of the Power of Love Foundation, The Granny Connection is dedicated to encouraging self-sufficiency in communities affected by the disease through micro loans and business training as well as food, medicine and health care services.
