AHF Nigeria – About us
AHF Nigeria actively collaborates with the Federal and States Ministries of Health and the National and States Agencies for the Control of AIDS as an Implementing Partner (IP) of Nigeria’s HIV/AIDS response.
Service provision in Nigeria commenced in August 2011 and now covers sixty-five (123) comprehensive and decentralized HIV clinics spread across six (6) states: Anambra, Benue, Cross River, Kogi, Nasarawa and FCT Abuja – and is extending to additional sites in Abuja, Cross River, Benue and Nasarawa under the Fast Track Initiative of the Federal Government of Nigeria which aims to get additional 100, 000 Nigerians on treatment.
To date, AHF Nigeria has conducted over 2 million HIV tests, distributed over 8 million condoms and awarded financial support to its partners through the AHF GRANT FUND – about $362,937 has been awarded in grants to successful CSOs and CBOs since 2012 in Nigeria.

AIDS Healthcare Foundation Since 1987, AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) has grown from a small community-based hospice in Los Angeles serving people in the final stages of AIDS to the largest global HIV/AIDS nonprofit organization providing cutting-edge medicine and advocacy regardless of ability to pay.
AHF fulfills its mission through its healthcare centers, HIV/AIDS special needs health plans and disease management programs, pharmacies, and clinics in resource-constrained regions.
As a truly independent voice, AHF’s operating capital comes from self-created social enterprises such as AHF Pharmacies, Out of the Closet thrift stores, healthcare contracts, and other strategic partnerships.
AHF serves more than 2 million clients in 47 countries across Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Our work combines innovative healthcare delivery models with positive policy changes that help bring life-saving treatment, free HIV testing, and free or affordable condoms to all who need them.
In recent years, AHF has expanded its focus on global public health to include housing, food security, and pandemic response and preparedness in addition to HIV/AIDS.
