Causes We Love: World Aids Day

 Today is World Aids Day.  We understand that it is only a day that we all focus on the fact the 39 million people have died from HIV/AIDS and 35 million people are currently infected, but a day, if we are loud and passionate enough, can echo all year long. Instead of throwing facts at you, we will just let Bono and Bank of America discuss systemic changes.  This is the link to World Aids Facts if you’re looking.

Minnesota AIDS Walk

Last Sunday I went to the Minneapolis/St. Paul area so I could walk the 2011 Minnesota AIDS Walk.  I was walking with the St. Paul Public Schools(SPPS) Gay Straight Alliances(GSA) that are sponsored by a St. Paul organization called Out for Equity.  Together, our team raised over two thousand dollars with a total of about twenty-five walkers.  It really was an amazing day.  The day was full of pride, excitement and huge sense of community was raised because we were all there to help raise awareness on AIDS/ HIV and promote the education of it.
