Our LGBTQIA+ Crew Employee Resource Group in Hickory, NC visited ALFA (AIDS Leadership Foothills-Area) last month to donate over 200 items and monetary donations in advance of Pride Month. AFLA works to reduce the stigma and impact of HIV, viral hepatitis, STIs and other communicable diseases through access to equitable prevention, education, and care services. Proud of our team for making an impact and serving our local communities. #community #erg #gobeon #hickory

Just 36 more hours to have your donation tripled! https://lnkd.in/eiSGyDq9 The results speak for themselves. Only a few years ago, expectant mother’s with HIV lived in fear of passing on the virus to their unborn child. Now we are seeing mother-to-child transmission rates of almost 0%* across the 39 villages where we work. That’s 1,700 babies born over the past 6 years, free from HIV whose lives could have been very different. But we cannot celebrate until mothers and children in every Last Mile community are able to access this same support. Please help our Mentor Mothers and us to go even further. Support the Triple It Appeal and have your gift matched twice-over by a small number of generous private donors. But don't hang about: Triple-It closes on 15 December. https://lnkd.in/eiSGyDq9 * only 2 cases of transmission in 1,700 pregnancies over the past 6 years - in a region where 27% of the population has HIV.

Cold, wet weather is hardest on our most vulnerable citizens. Scott Elliott, Executive Director of Dr. Peter Centre (a non-profit with a mission to support people with HIV, complex health and social needs), shared that "Love is #HarmReduction. Warm socks are harm reduction." Think of this as we support others; sometimes warm socks are more than just socks. Listen how Scott + team provide help + belonging: https://ow.ly/EP7M50Qc7J3 #WickedMindPod #GivingTuesday

The Mercury Phoenix Trust was founded by Brian May, Roger Taylor and their manager Jim Beach in memory of rock band Queen's iconic lead #singer Freddie Mercury who died in 1991 from #AIDS related causes. ... For many years, the MPT has focused on #funding #Education and Awareness projects in the developing world, believing that knowledge and prevention are key to tackling this terrible #disease. The projects funded cover a breadth of education and awareness issues, ranging from educating grandparents looking after their grandchildren #orphaned by AIDS in #Cambodia, to preventing mother to child transmission in #SouthAfrica, to HIV awareness #theatre in #PapuaNewGuinea and educating sexually active youth globally. Although the MPT donates to the large #NGO's and well-known charities, the greater part of funding goes direct to small grassroots organisations, which the bigger charities tend to overlook. By doing so, the MPT makes a real difference. We are proud of the fact that more that 93p in each pound we raise goes to funding projects spread across the globe and in total the MPT has #funded well over 1,500 projects in 57 countries, giving away over £17m in the global battle against AIDS. HELP US to use Freddie’s memory and charisma to keep funding these desperately needed #HIV / AIDS global initiatives." https://lnkd.in/eAESPXsG #mercuryphoenixtrust

The theme for A Taste for Life: Winnipeg 2024 is "Not Letting Our Stories Disappear." Here's why. We asked the Nine Circles HIV Lived Experience Advisory what "Not Letting Our Stories Disappear" means, as an intergenerational approach to HIV/AIDS history, storytelling, activism, and community building. The HLEA answered: "Not Letting Our Stories Disappear embodies a collective commitment to preserving and sharing the invaluable narratives of individuals who championed HIV-AIDS care in the 80s and 90s, a crucial era often overlooked in documentation. Recognizing the significance of communal storytelling, we aim to create opportunities for individuals to converge and exchange these vital histories. It is paramount to ensure that the first AIDS crisis is not forgotten, with the acknowledgment of the immense loss and challenges faced by those who lived through that tumultuous time." We won't let our stories disappear. ❤️ Support Nine Circles on April 17 when you order at a participating A Taste for Life location.

📣 FYI: This year's A Taste for Life theme is "Not Letting Our Stories Disappear." We asked our HIV Lived Experience Advisory why we should raise funds for HIV-STBBI care at Nine Circles on April 17. The HLEA answered: "Celebrating A Taste for Life’s 25th year, it prompts us to reflect on the importance of Nine Circles and its mission. Easy to support, Nine Circles plays a pivotal role in drawing attention to the rising rates of HIV in Manitoba, a consequence of chronic underfunding for HIV care. Supporting Nine Circles is not just an act of support; it's an investment in the health and well-being of oneself and one's family. The stark reality that HIV can affect anyone at any time underscores the importance of backing this cause. Beyond individual concerns, there exists a collective responsibility to get involved, as those who head out on April 17th are not only supporting care, but prevention of HIV-STBBIs." Support Nine Circles and our life-saving care when you order at a participating A Taste for Life location. ❤️ LOCATIONS 👉 atasteforlife.org/winnipeg DONATE 👉 ninecircles.ca/donate . . . #atasteforlife #atasteforlife2024 #atasteforlifewinnipeg #atfl #atfl2024 #atflwpg2024 #atflwpg #hivaids #nonprofit #hivawareness #aidsawareness #harmreduction
