In 2001, The Pendulum Project was established as a 501 © 3 organization by a group of women in the Boston area. They bring hands on expertise in AIDS, community work and business. Since then, The Pendulum Project has raised funds that go directly to grass-roots community groups in Malawi to help support children and families affected by HIV/AIDS. Even with the new awareness and response about the situation in Africa, there is still a very urgent need to respond to the millions of children that are in need of support.

The Pendulum Project empowers grassroots organizations that support children in AIDS affected regions of sub-Saharan Africa by linking them with individuals and communities committed to providing essential resources, advocacy and hope. The Pendulum Project believes in creating a culture where all are given a voice to pursue dignity, justice and equality in the fight against AIDS and poverty.

The Pendulum Project is a non-profit humanitarian organization that helps families and communities care for, support, and protect orphans and vulnerable children in parts of the world that are severely impacted by AIDS. Our first geographic area of focus is in sub-Sahara Africa, where the AIDS epidemic is raging, and where the number of orphans and children at risk is growing exponentially.

Our Goal is to Create a World in which:

• The rights of all children are respected, protected and fulfilled despite the AIDS epidemic.
• All children in AIDS-affected communities have access to care, education and opportunities so that they can become healthy and productive citizens.
• All AIDS-affected families and communities have the resources they need to care for their orphans and vulnerable children.
• All organizations that are engaged in the effort to assist children impacted by the AIDS epidemic are committed to working collaboratively.
