The Elton John AIDS Foundation (EJAF) is a nonprofit organization, established by rock musician Sir Elton John in 1992 in the United States and 1993 in the United Kingdom to support innovative HIV/AIDS prevention, education programs, direct care and support services to people living with HIV/AIDS.
It has raised over 200 million US dollars to support HIV/AIDS programs in fifty-five nations.
The organisation supports its work through special events, cause-related marketing projects and voluntary contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations. In 1993, the organization began hosting the annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Award Party.
