Hello, I hope your all doing good today and getting in the Holiday Spirit. I know I am. This year I've decided to take the pledge to fight for an AIDS Free Generation by 2015 by giving one (RED) gift this holiday season. You can find more info at http://www.joinred.com/red I hope you will join the movement too. What better gift can you give than a gift that will also help those in need. And while your in the giving spirit, please give one minute of your time to sign the Petition to help end The Famine in Somalia. With your signature you will be giving the gift of your voice, a gift that will save children's lives, our most precious gift! I would suggest too, if your able to in this economy, making a small donation to either one of these causes in someone's name, it would be a unique way to give a Holiday Gift. I have included the links below to help with the causes. When you add your Panel to the Aids Quilt you will receive a free music download to add to your Holiday Collection. Most of all this season, giving gifts with a good cause, always a good thing!
Thanks for visiting,
Janet :)
Sister organizations (RED) and (ONE) have come together to create the 2015 QUILT, a DIGITAL patchwork of photos and images made by people all over the world who are pledging to join the fight for an AIDS Free Generation by 2015.
FIGHTING FOR AN AIDS FREE GENERATION WE ARE SO CLOSE!
In 1987, a quilt created by The Names Project Foundation covered the National Mall in Washington, D.C., memorializing those we lost to AIDS. Today, we stand at the threshold of another defining milestone in this fight: by 2015, we should be able to provide treatment to the 15 million people who need it, drastically reduce new infections, and end the transmission of HIV from mothers to their babies. 1.4 million HIV+ pregnant women need access to treatment – treatment that only costs about 40 cents a day.
It can be done. But we need your help to get there.
Join millions of existing ONE and (RED) supporters. Add your panel to the (2015)QUILT. Make a pledge to do more and a thank you gift will come your way. Our friends, THE KILLERS have once again recorded a Christmas song for us— their 6th song for the cause. Add your pledge to the (2015)QUILT and receive one of (THE KILLERS) RED Christmas songs for free.
Every generation is known for something. Let’s be the one to deliver an AIDS FREE GENERATION by 2015.
THE FACTS DON’T LIE. HERE’S WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP.
AN HIV+ PREGNANT WOMEN CAN GIVE BIRTH TO AN HIV FREE BABY.
98% OF MOTHER-TO-CHILD HIV TRANSMISSION INCIDENTS ARE PREVENTABLE
YET, MORE THAN 1,000 BABIES ARE BORN EVERY DAY WITH HIV
AND HALF OF CHILDREN BORN WITH HIV WILL DIE BEFORE THEIR 2ND BIRTHDAY WITHOUT TREATMENT
SO WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO DELIVER AN AIDS FREE GENERATION BY 2015?
WE NEED TO GET 1.4 MILLION HIV+ PREGNANT WOMEN ON MEDICATION – MEDICATION THAT COSTS AROUND 40 CENTS A DAY
IT’S DOABLE.
The beginning of the end of AIDS starts with you. They are not
asking for your money, just your voice!
