Founded in 1987, Funders Concerned About AIDS (FCAA) is a U.S.-based organization comprised of and for private philanthropic institutions concerned about, engaged in or potentially active in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
FCAA's mission is to mobilize leadership, ideas and resources of U.S.-based funders to eradicate the HIV/AIDS pandemic – domestically and internationally – and to address its social and economic consequences.
Funders Concerned with AIDS (FCAA) is the only U.S.-based organization comprised of and for private philanthropic institutions concerned about, engaged in or potentially active in the fight against HIV/AIDS. An affinity group recognized by the Council of Foundations, FCAA’s vision is to create a philanthropic sector that works collaboratively, informedly and urgently to ensure that the HIV/AIDS epidemic is halted, and that the communities already affected by it receive the resources they need.
FCAA regularly provides ideas, products and services to over 1,500 philanthropic institutions. These foundations and corporations in turn support thousands of diverse organizations in the United States and across the globe that are engaged in critical HIV/AIDS research, prevention, care, social service, civil rights/social justice, and public policy/advocacy activities. FCAA’s constituency also includes hundreds of key decision-makers and opinion shapers in government and multi-lateral agencies, HIV/AIDS organizations and the media who rely on FCAA’s work to learn more about and partner with U.S.-based philanthropic institutions.
