¿Y Entonces...?

Today marks the 30th anniversary of the CDC’s announcement of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. This is a slideshow of the disease throughout the years. Also, feel free to browse the website to see organizations that you can donate to.

As always, I’m a supporter of the Colorado AIDS Project, a non-profit that helps those living with HIV/AIDS, and those at risk, to make healthy choices for a self sufficient, enhanced quality of life. CAP provides innovative, individualized services to those most in need, educates high risk populations, and advocates for social and health care equity.

CAP empowers those living with or at risk of HIV to live healthier, enhanced lives by providing two different sets of services.

It’s GREAT so far! Everyone here at CAP is super nice and very helpful. At the time being, I’m working front desk.

This is going to be the start of a great experience for me! :)

As you may recall, I have participated in this event before, but only as a community event for the dorms as a Resident Assistant. This time, however, I’m participating not only as a volunteer, but as a runner, and I’m trying to raise $500 for this organization.

I am volunteering with the Colorado AIDS Project for the Peace Corps, but this cause has grown into something I will and continue to fight for. Not only do I strive to help people raise money, but I personally want to raise money myself to make a difference in the lives of people living with HIV and AIDS. 

This event is August 13, 2011 (116 days)
