Gayhealth is a unique entity within AfA that built itself as a community based organization, that wants to help improve the sexual health and services to Gay/Bi/MSM community through advocacy and empowerment.
Getting To 0
To keep up with the ever evolving needs of the gay community, we overhauled Singapore’s pioneering and most comprehensive Men-who-have-sex-with-men (MSM) Programme (what a mouthful) to gayhealth.sg. With one objective in mind: to achieve zero.
Community Based
We believe in a collaborative approach that involves people throughout the entire process of program or project planning & execution. The unique strengths that each person brings help us build a resilient and adaptive community.
What We Do
With our team of dedicated volunteers, we pull together individuals, families, friends and businesses to form a system of care that provides relevant and holistic services and programmes so you can be in the pink of health.
About AFA
Formed in 1988, the organisation has been instrumental at raising public awareness of HIV/AIDS and provision of support and assistance for persons living with HIV infection. 28 years on, AfA continues to be a lead and deliver complex prevention and care programmes in a globalised and connected society that requires greater coordination and collaboration.
We are doing it better as we move into a new era of HIV/AIDS .
