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. You can join them by supporting important AIDS programs. If you choose "where needed most" your gift will be used for programs in Asia, Latin America, or Africa where CRWRC is working to prevent the spread of HIV, care for those infected, and support those left behind.  If you'd prefer to give to something more specific, consider joining other young people in supporting a specific project in Uganda that is helping widows, orphans, and child heads of households increase their income so they can support themselves.

Gifts can be made online (see options below) or by mail.  Checks should be made out to "CRWRC" and marked with your giving preference in the the memo line.  They can be sent to CRWRC, 2850 Kalamazoo Ave. SE, Grand Rapids, MI, 49560 or CRWRC, 3475 Mainway, PO Box 5070 STN LCD 1, Burlington, ON, L7R 3Y8.
