I'm fundraising for an AIDS-free generation!

Hello everyone, welcome to my fundraising page!

This is my third and final year on PAC, where I am now serving as the executive director of marketing! PAC has been such a pivotal organization throughout my college career, and I am so pumped to keep working hard this year to put on the best Dance Marathon! 

In case you are unfamiliar with the work we do, we are a student-led organization with the end goal of creating an AIDS-free generation. We do this through advocacy against the stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS, and philanthropy that supports our three beneficiaries: Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (global impact), Laurel Foundation (local impact), and UCLA AIDS Institute (research impact)! This money goes to support families (both local to LA and globally) affected by HIV/AIDS through monthly treatment, testing, support groups, and research efforts!

Did you know that it costs just $70 to provide treatment preventing HIV transmission from mother to child, yet 168 babies are born with HIV every day because of the lack of resources and stigma that surrounds HIV/AIDS? Our goal is so tangible and within reach, making our work so important.

This year, I will be dancing on March 7th to take a literal 10-hour stand against HIV/AIDS alongside my club members and other supporters!

If you have the means to do so, please consider donating to my page to support our wonderful beneficiaries! Any donation has an imPACt :)
