PHILANTHROPY'S RESPONSE TO HIV AND AIDS:

• Migrants and refugees impacted by HIV saw a near doubling in funding in 2024
• Funding for African American/Black communities in the US was down $12 million (23%)
• Funding for Older Adults, who face unique health and support needs, increased by a dramatic 57% in 2024

While not included in the accompanying charts as individual population categories, on closer examination we found that:

• 2024 saw a $27 million (23%) increase in funding for key populations overall, and increases for each individual population, except MSM which saw a 2% decline
• LGBTQI communities collectively saw a $19 million (21%) increase from the previous year
• Funding for Adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) saw an $11 million (39%) increase

• Funding for Advocacy declined $7 million (5%)
• General operating/core support decreased dramatically by $29 million (32%) in 2024, after seeing a series of increases in the previous years
• PrEP-related funding was down $9 million (14%)
• Leadership development and capacity building was down over $20 million (23%)

• Despite being one of the most impacted regions, Eastern & Southern Africa saw a decrease of $30 million (16%). Three other regions also saw declines in funding, the Caribbean, Latin America, and East Asia & Southeast Asia
• Canada and the Middle East & North Africa saw an increase of $3.8 million (236%) and $3.3 million (187%), respectively
• Funding to the United States increased by $32 million (11%) in 2024

In 2025, the U.S. administration dismantled USAID and paused or canceled much of their funding through the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). These funding disruptions have had devastating impacts to recipient countries, many of which relied heavily on these resources. The map below shows the number of PEPFAR–funded countries in each Global region, with Sub-Saharan Africa containing the majority, thus shouldering the brunt of these impacts.
