AHF COLOMBIA

What AHF COLOMBIA does

AHF Colombia is the Colombian branch of AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF Global), a non-profit organization (ONG) founded in 2018 and headquartered in Bogotá, Colombia. The organization provides free, confidential HIV and sexual health services to the general population, with particular focus on people living with HIV (PLHIV), youth aged 15-34, migrants and undocumented individuals, and key populations including men who have sex with men (HSH), transgender women, and sex workers. All services are delivered without requiring health insurance, medical orders, or immigration documentation, addressing structural barriers to healthcare access in Colombia.

The core service portfolio comprises rapid HIV testing using third-generation ELISA antibody-detection tests via finger-prick capillary blood samples with results in 15-30 minutes and sensitivity/specificity above 99%, free STI diagnosis and treatment (syphilis, chlamydia, HPV, herpes, gonorrhea), personalized counseling and emotional support, antiretroviral treatment (TAR) linkage guidance including I=I (Undetectable = Untransmittable) education, and free condom/lubricant distribution. Services are delivered through 7 Wellness Centers and Sexual Wellbeing Centers across Bogotá, Cartagena, Cúcuta (temporarily closed), Bucaramanga, Valledupar, Riohacha, and Maicao, with hospital-based partnerships (e.g., Hospital Eduardo Arredondo Daza in Valledupar) and WhatsApp-based appointment booking.

AHF Colombia operates as a non-profit funded by charitable donations and grants via its parent organization, AIDS Healthcare Foundation, which spans 43 countries globally. The freemium pricing model means all services are free to end users; revenue mechanics for the Colombian entity are not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is community-led, relying on stigma-free content marketing (blog campaigns such as #SinTabú and #VIVIRBIENCONVIH), multi-platform social media presence (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube), and direct community outreach to drive testing uptake among populations facing barriers to mainstream healthcare.
