The Fight || World AIDS Day
I worked for an AIDS Project in the early days of the epidemic...late 80's early 90's. I started out as a volunteer because I heard someone speaking at a rally, and they said what will you say when you are asked what did you do to help? That moved me to action. I delivered meals to people with HIV/AIDS. I eventually became the director of volunteer services for my local AIDS Project. It will be for me always GOD's work.
What will you say when you are asked someday what did you do in the face of all this ignorance and dying?
Be a blessing. VOLUNTEER.

Always knew you are a beautiful spirit, my Sista.
"Folks would not have to suffer
If there were love
For your brother
But these are Tryin'Times."
