HIV/AIDS

[Senusret I]

Brothers,

I am looking for Alpha Phi Omega (USA) Brothers who are actively engaged in HIV/AIDS service organizations as employees, volunteers, and members of boards of directors. If you would be so kind as to send me a PM with your level of experience in the HIV field to that would be awesome. Though I will reply with more details, I am basically working on building more partnerships between local HIV organizations. (I am a Director of Development for an HIV org which has benefited from APO collegiate and alumni volunteers.)

Thanks so much!

My former chapter has (for the last 3-4 years straight, and several other years before that) helped the Nebraska AIDS Project with their annual fundraiser event, called "Night of a Thousand Stars." I know we have, as a result of getting brothers to this event, had some go on to volunteer with NAP on a more regular basis.

The Night of a Thousand Stars happens in December, but we have had volunteers help with their outreach programs year-round, and we had a pledge class do HIV testing as their service project a couple of years ago.

You can find more on NAP here: http://www.nap.org/Default.aspx

^^^^ Thank you, Brother! This will also help with the legislation I mention in another thread in the APO section of this board.
