Participate in World AIDS DAY 2005. With events occurring around the world, show your support for those living with and fighting this disease.

World AIDS Day is December 1, and the Vigil at Wesley begins at 7:00.

If you are in the Washington/Metro Area, please consider attending a very special event at
Wesley Church. This interfaith candlelight vigil designed to remember our friends and family members who have died with AIDS – as well as the millions of people who have
died that we do not know. It is also a time to honor those who are living with this dreadful disease today. As part of the Vigil we are inviting people to bring photographs and memorabilia to be shared in a display for the evening.

The AIDS Memorial Quilt will also be on display. If you have seen the Quilt you know how special and awesome it is to stand
before such a living and dynamic memorial. We are also opening the doors of
Wesley to groups and schools to come and view the Quilt all day on Friday,
December 2. If you know of a group you would like to invite, please have
them contact Pan by telephone at 202-364-9481 to schedule a time for viewing.

SLAM AIDS 2!
SLAM AIDS 2! WASHINGTON, DC

Come Join Global Youth Partnership for Africa (GYPA) as we SLAM AIDS with DC’s most talented spoken word artists!

This project is designed to promote awareness of the HIV/AIDS pandemic and to raise funds to benefit Antiretroviral treatment of patients at the Kairos Medical Centre, located in Namuwongo, Uganda. This unique initiative utilizes the creative power of performance art and poetry to motivate young people to educate themselves and others about the Global AIDS pandemic and to increase awareness and understanding about Africa. The goal is also to mobilize youth to reach out to those living with the disease, both at home and abroad.

The Washington DC event at the Bus Boys and Poets Café will feature such well
known artists as Delrica Andrews, Simone Jacobson, 13, and more! Ugandan dancer Daniel Ssuna will be performing and David Haroz, Policy Officer for UNAIDS-USA, will be speaking!
