Southern Time Foundation

🌍 Southern Time Foundation — Organizational Description

Who We Are:

Founded in 2020, Southern Time Foundation (STF) is a nonprofit rooted in a deep commitment to healing and transformation. Inspired by the lived experience of our founder — a musician, storyteller, and HIV survivor — STF’s mission is to help end health, social, and environmental injustices both locally and globally.

We believe in the power of community, compassion, and creative advocacy to drive lasting change. Through music, storytelling, and a people-powered platform, we aim to uplift marginalized voices and spark real-world action.

Our History:

Southern Time Foundation was born out of a vision: to create not just awareness, but real, sustainable solutions to systemic crises that too often leave vulnerable communities unheard, underserved, and unseen.

As the nonprofit arm of Southern Time Productions (STP), STF is designed to grow alongside STP’s future media and social initiatives, funded partly through a portion of STP’s revenue.

Though STF is still preparing for its full launch, its heart beats with years of grassroots advocacy, lived experience confronting HIV/AIDS stigma, and a belief in creative storytelling as a tool for healing and justice.

Our Goals:

• End AIDS by 2030 through education, prevention, and the dismantling of stigma.
• Provide Safe, Inclusive Online Spaces where marginalized individuals can access free medical and social service advice, peer-to-peer direct giving, and grassroots support.
• Empower Community-Led Change by facilitating connections between donors, nonprofits, and marginalized communities through our forthcoming platform.
• Promote Health, Social, and Environmental Justice by partnering with aligned organizations worldwide.
• Mobilize the LOHAS and Cultural Creative communities to unify artistic, activist, and humanitarian efforts globally.

Our Programs (Launching Soon):

STF will power initiatives through:

• The Southern Time Platform’s Shared Social Space, featuring:
  • Free, vetted health and social service resources.
  • Peer-to-peer direct giving opportunities.
  • Grassroots organizing tools and opportunities for members to create change.
• Health Awareness Campaigns, especially around HIV/AIDS, mental health, and trauma recovery.
• Creative Advocacy Programs using music, film, and storytelling to humanize and inspire social action.
• Strategic Partnerships with nonprofits, community groups, and public health organizations.

Our Achievements (Coming Soon):

While STF is newly operational, our vision is bold and transformative.

In the coming years, we aim to:

• Help thousands of marginalized individuals access critical services and support.
• Contribute meaningfully toward the global effort to end AIDS by 2030.
• Inspire a new model of community-powered, creativity-fueled global activism.
