December One is World AIDS Day. Previously, this was a day of sadness and memories. Today, it's a day's great hope.
The global concept this current year is “Getting to Zero” - a dream of a day when there aren't any more HIV infections, and avoid people loss of life of AIDS. In assistance of this objective, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton declared soon the U.S. government’s blueprint for “Creating an AIDS Free Generation,” also it represents a bold step forward.
Planet Aid is really a very proud supporter of the worldwide movement to create this dream a reality, not years from now, but in the next generation. We are thus fully at the rear of the execution of the “Total Control of the Epidemic” (TCE) program. The U.S. Federal government has been the main financing promoter of TCE, that has reached greater than Fourteen million people with HIV testing, training and therapy assistance for children, currently pregnant mothers, men and women and families within the hardest hit countries.
We passionately reveal the targets of “Getting to Zero” by standing shoulder to shoulder with all the towns and individuals battling this crisis. TCE mobilizes people and entire towns to take personal responsibility and control of HIV/AIDS within their lives, empowering these to know their standing, understand the details, get into therapy and support each other.
We want to say thanks to all of our supporters who have made our own donation to TCE plans global possible. The funds we increase through clothing contributions in the yellow-colored bins and thru online donations have helped tremendously.
We motivate everybody to do their particular part in “Getting to Zero” - do something in your own life, and also support Planet Aid and all the organizations fighting together from this feared crisis.
