CARE for AIDS to Sponsor Book Drive

CARE for AIDS will be hosting a book drive in the Student Union Building during finals week with donations contributing to the funding of care centers in Kenya.

The hope of this organization is to bring awareness to the global issue of AIDS by diversifying the campus’ knowledge on the HIV/AIDS crisis.

CARE for AIDS has a fundraising goal of $50,000 for the year, which will keep two centers in Kenya open for a year. The CARE for AIDS organization as a whole currently has 14 care centers across Kenya that have nearly 2,000 graduates from the program. More than 1,000 individuals are currently in the program. The centers take in HIV/AIDS victims and provide food, medical counseling and spiritual encouragement to live and not die from the disease.

Book donations can be made in the Student Union Building from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. during finals week. Each donation will go directly toward further funding one of the care centers. Donate three books and get a free t-shirt.
