FACE AIDS

FACE AIDS

FACE AIDS is a student organization which raises money and awareness about AIDS in Africa. Through the sale of beaded AIDS ribbon pins, made by individuals living with HIV and AIDS in Zambia, FACE AIDS chapters on college campuses across the country strive to increase understanding of the disease by putting a human face to the epidemic. All revenue from the pins goes directly to Partners In Health in Rwanda.

FACE AIDS was started by three Stanford University students after they spent a summer working in a refugee camp in northern Zambia.
