It could be as easy as doing an online search, watch a documentary, volunteer, get tested, talk to your children about AIDS, make a donation.  I could go on and on.

For starters, check out the AAPC (African American Planning Commission) website on change.org.  They have an interesting post called “World AIDS Day 2008- What You Can Do To Help” in their blog section.

What do you plan to do in honor of World AIDS Day?  Any good resources to share?

Awesome political t-shirts! I own a few myself.

DONATE for a good cause

50% of your donation (less Pay Pal fees) will go to Emerge Global charity (http://emergeglobal.org/). The other 50% funds the sweat equity I put into my work for your enjoyment. My hope is that one day I will be able to donate 100% to charity.
