Dear m2m Family, Friends, and Supporters,
2022 was a year full of remarkable progress at m2m—we continued to deliver impact at scale, embarked on an exciting new strategy, formed important new partnerships, and ensured the voices of our frontline team were heard on some of the biggest global stages—all thanks to the tremendous hard work and dedication of our team and the unwavering commitment and generous support of our donors, partners, Board Members, and friends.
One of the big highlights of the year was the launch of our new ambitious five-year strategic plan which sees us continue to evolve into an integrated primary health care organisation—a one-stop shop for our clients’ most critical health needs, helping even more people to access and stay in the health care they need. Building on two decades of experience, reach, and impact, we will use our proven peer-led model to double down on ending HIV/AIDS, tackle life-threatening health issues that pose major risks for people living with HIV, and strengthen health systems—all with the aim of building a fairer, healthier future.
This new strategy was informed by the experiences and realities of m2m’s frontline staff, and also reflects the consensus in the global health community that achieving the Sustainable Development Goal of "Health for All" by 2030 will depend on meeting the needs of communities in an integrated way.
We are proud that in the first year of our new strategic plan, our female-led, peer-based model achieved impressive impact—advancing our mission to provide health care to families who need it most, delivered by women who know them best. Among the highlights of 2022, m2m drove access to health care in marginalised communities with over 1.2 million people reached across 10 countries. We continued to contribute to the global goal to end HIV/AIDS by 2030—achieving virtual elimination of mother-to-child transmission of HIV for the 9th consecutive year and meeting or surpassing UNAIDS’ ambitious 2025 targets designed to bring the AIDS epidemic under control. We also improved health and opportunity for women and families. For example, 98% of children receiving m2m’s early childhood development services reached their developmental milestones at 12 months; and 96% of clients referred for cervical pre-cancerous screening in Lesotho agreed to proceed with the procedure, compared to 34% in 2021.
At the heart of it all—our strategy, our work, our impact—are the amazing women living with HIV who are employed and trained as community health workers. Their tremendous dedication, empathy, and perseverance are at the heart of everything we do and give me hope that we can create a healthier world for everyone, everywhere.
To find out more about m2m’s model, and the impact that paid, trained, and fully digitalised female community health workers at the heart of our work are having in their communities, please continue scrolling to read our 2022 Annual Report.
Asante sana, Dankie, Enkosi, Ke a leboha, Natotela, Ndi a livhuhu, Ndza Khensa, Ngiyabonga, Ngiyathokoza, Nyanja, Obrigado, Siyabonga, Webale nyo, Zikomo, and Gracias…

m2m believes these inequities must be eradicated. Health is a human right and a bedrock of opportunity for all, and we will not waver from this position.
At the heart of 2022 was the launch of our new five-year strategic plan, through which we are building on our more than 20 years of success to overcome these inequities, improve health access, and deliver on the following important commitments:
Sustainable Development Goals
Help deliver the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals of creating health for all, delivering gender equality, promoting decent work, and strengthening partnerships by 2030.
95-95-95
Play a major role in achieving the UNAIDS’ 95-95-95 targets to bring the AIDS epidemic under control by 2025.
African Union
Contribute to the African Union’s Agenda 2063 goals for the socio-economic transformation of the continent during the next 50 years.
We will achieve this by transforming 20 years of experience and impact into further progress:
Ending HIV, Delivering Health For All
We are expanding to deliver integrated primary healthcare services to end HIV and tackle life-threatening health issues that disproportionately affect people living with HIV—including malaria, tuberculosis, cervical cancer, diabetes, and hypertension.
A New Client Group
In addition to women, children, and adolescents, we will now also support special populations. This includes groups where there are high numbers of new HIV infections and additional health risks—such as male partners of existing clients, internally displaced people, and men who have sex with men.
Increasing Impact Through Partnerships
Through targeted health system strengthening work, we will ensure more governments recognise and support paid, professionalised community health workers to deliver health for all.

Participants had the opportunity to see our frontline work, including our Innovation Hub, and cycle along the gorgeous False Bay coastline and through the hills of the Jonkershoek Nature Reserve.
“Mentor Mothers are a bridge between people and health centres. It’s my passion to see young women taking back their power and making positive decisions about when to access health care and what kind of care they want to access. Serving my community makes me feel like a champion.”
“There is a lack of awareness in my community about the importance and the procedure for screening for cervical cancer. I tell my clients that if cervical cancer is identified early, it can be managed and totally cured. After screening, clients always say it is simple, and even end up encouraging each other to get screened.”
“Malaria has a huge impact in my community, especially as there are so many mosquitoes in our area. I personally have had malaria. That is why I educate my clients and teach them about the correct use of the mosquito net, and make sure that every pregnant woman receives the net to prevent malaria during her pregnancy”
“Often the clinical staff doesn’t have time to fully support clients who are experiencing non-communicable disease (NCD) symptoms, and explain to them why and how they should be sticking to their treatment. But as Mentor Mothers, we can take the time to go over what NCDs, like diabetes and hypertension, are and what a healthy lifestyle looks like.”
“I can see in my own work that combining our digital health tools with our in-person services and the strong bonds we have with our clients has truly helped women and girls access, start, and stay in care. As a mother myself, I know all too well the health challenges in our community, and I am proud to play my part in ensuring no one is left behind.”
“If you knock on the door of any house in our community in Mpumalanga, there's a good chance that a child will answer the door and that child may be looking after their orphaned siblings. I strengthen families, and provide orphans and vulnerable children and adolescents with vital health services, link them to other health and social services they need, and support them to stay in school.”
At the heart of it all, and everything we do, are strong, courageous, empathetic, and dedicated women living with HIV employed by m2m as community health workers. They have a deep understanding of the challenges their clients face, having overcome their own, and become trusted leaders, role models, and sought-after resources in their communities.
Meet some of these extraordinary women:

2022 Financials
We are pleased to report revenue of $32.8 million in 2022, the first year of implementation of our 2022–2026 strategic plan. While we experienced a decrease in core operating revenue—impacting our country platforms—this came against a backdrop of significant global political and economic instability and an associated shift in donor priorities.
We were able to mitigate the impact thanks to a careful and judicious approach to spending, and close engagement with our key partners. Funding from the United States Government, through the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), managed via the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), remained our largest source of support this year. We are also grateful for deepened funding commitments from long-term donors in 2022, including LGT Venture Philanthropy and Cartier Philanthropy, both of which reinvested in m2m in support of our new strategic plan and to further scale our impact and reach. We also received follow-up funding from the Denise Coates Foundation to support our work in Malawi. (For a full list of 2022 Donors, click here.)
In 2022, programme costs totalled 84% of our overall expenses. We ended the year with $39.2 million of Reserves, of which $34.5 million was Unrestricted. These funds have been allocated towards creating operating capital for long-term sustainability given concerns over the outlook of international development funding. A portion is also earmarked for continued strategic investment in the delivery of our strategic plan, including start up support for planned operations in two new countries, as well as additional investment in evolving our model in existing country platforms. Looking ahead, we will maintain our careful approach to spending, make strategic use of reserves to support the communities we serve, advance our strategic plan, and continue to diversify funding sources.
Note: The figures presented in this section are combined financial statements which are unaudited. Separate audited financial statements for m2m’s three global entities (South Africa, U.K., and U.S.) are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), U.K. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and are available on our website, m2m.org.

*Disclaimer: mothers2mothers (m2m) strives to provide accurate performance data. Our data quality and routine monitoring and evaluation systems are regularly reviewed and updated. We benchmark and validate internal data though external evaluations and data quality assurance processes. National and site comparisons often rely on public domain data; m2m has no control over the quality of such data. As m2m tracks mother-baby pairs, each pregnancy is catalogued as a new client in our PMTCT programme, potentially cumulatively leading to a higher count for adult women clients.
