LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE

It’s here, it’s live and it’s shining. iEmbraceAIDS.com is a new website created by CRWRC to provide youth with a way to get involved in the rally to embrace people living with AIDS.

AIDS is a disease that’s been ravaging the world for over 25 years – and it affects everything. In many developing countries AIDS is the main reason people aren’t getting enough food to eat, enough money to live, or the education they need. To make matters worse, a family affected by AIDS is pushed further into poverty causing members of that family to make decisions that put them at greater risk of getting this disease. In 2007 alone, 3 million people contracted HIV, 33 million people were living with it, and over 2 million people died of AIDS-related causes – three quarters of these deaths happened in Sub-Saharan Africa.

iEmbraceAIDS.com was created to help a new generation be a light at the end of the tunnel that is the AIDS crisis, and shine the light of Christ around the world. The site includes a variety of options for young people to do their part to learn about the disease, raise awareness with their friends, and be part of the solution.

The site will launch on December 1, 2008 (World AIDS Day). Visit www.iEmbraceAIDS.com to find out how we can “all shine together, all over the world, to bring AIDS out of the darkness."
