Cause Education | HIV Around the World

Описание: HIV is a virus, a nonliving particle that does not discriminate between gender, race, age or sexual orientation. HIV/AIDS is a GLOBAL pandemic that has infected populations in every corner of the world. We have the knowledge and science needed to effectively make pediatric AIDS 100% PREVENTABLE. All we need now is the support.

The Pediatric AIDS Coalition first began as Dance Marathon in 2002. Over the past 12 years, Dance Marathon has grown from 20 committee members raising $27,000 to 125 committee members last year planning an event that raised over $475,000. Four years ago, the single event Dance Marathon transitioned into a yearlong organization known as the Pediatric AIDS Coalition (PAC), which is now the largest student-run philanthropic organization on the West Coast. PAC has expanded to include direct service projects and events that seek to expand knowledge of the pandemic within the community and support the group's beneficiaries: the Elizabeth Glazer Pediatric AIDS Foundation, Camp Kindle, and the UCLA AIDS Institute. Such programs include the "I Know" Awareness Campaign, World AIDS Day, Life Skills Retreat, and a Mentorship/Family Program.

Dance Marathon 2014 is moving to UCLA's historic PAULEY PAVILION on April 5-6, 2014! Our theme for the year is (k)NOW, as we educate our communities and inspire action. Join us in the fight for an AIDS-free generation!!
