Pounder has one sister named Shelley. She contributed immensely to the setting up of one of the organizations that helped start Artists for a New South Africa (ANSA), which has contributed to bringing attention to post-apartheid and HIV/AIDS issues in South Africa.
“When it’s this massive disease, and it’s affecting things in 5,000 different ways, it requires great strength and power—and there is power in numbers. So we need to involve as many people as we can as we do with ANSA. I call it my little engine that could. It is a remarkable, tiny organization with a huge outreach. We use actors and artists with the biggest voices so they can use every opportunity to talk about AIDS,” she told a reporter during an interview.
