As a supporter of ACCESS AIDS Care, you know the difference between talk and action when it comes to dealing with the increasing AIDS pandemic. You know that the investment in AIDS will be repaid in the lives saved and the communities held together. You know, because you want to Take Action.
You can help. There are so many programs and events that you can donate your time to at ACCESS AIDS Care. Each year, more than 15,000 hours are donated from community members to help ensure our programs and special events are a success. Volunteers help by preparing and delivering meals to needy families, participating in our children/youth services, and our fundraising efforts so that we may continue our mission. >Visit our Volunteer Page You can donate. A financial contribution helps us to serve the families and individuals living with HIV and AIDS in Hampton Roads. Every financial contribution that comes into ACCESS AIDS Care, .85 cents of each dollar goes to directly serve our families and clients. >Support ACCESS AIDS Care
You can be aware. Instead of being afraid, you are a friend to those who are facing the challenges of living with HIV. You are compassionate to the difficulty that accompanies diagnosis. You know that a patient of any other illness may have friends and family behind them, but that’s not always the case with HIV. Your support means that a family or individual living with HIV will have support and will not have to face the additional burden of hunger or homelessness as a result of their status. > Read about HIV/AIDS Statistics You can believe. In 2007, there were over 400 newly reported cases of HIV and AIDS in Virginia’s Eastern Region. You believe that through free testing, education, and outreach, we can bring more people into care, and decrease the number of new cases reported in 2008 and beyond. >Learn more about ACCESS AIDS Care's programs and services
