news
This winter, women and children on AIDSCare’s North Lawndale Housing Campus are in need of your help.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, women account for more than a quarter of all new HIV/AIDS infections (27% or 9,708) each year, a demographic largely overlooked. The families living on AIDSCare’s campus are headed by single, African American mothers. Out of the 22 mothers currently living on the campus, 13 are the sole caregivers of a child between the ages of 0 and 17 years. There are 25 children currently living on the campus.
For them, the fight against HIV/AIDS is a daily battle. We ask you to join the fight!
