Despite the devastating impact of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, there is hope. Samaritan’s Purse has designed programs to strengthen the international Christian response to the disease; mobilize private, church, corporate, and government resources; and develop a unified plan to defeat this disease.
The HIV/AIDS epidemic has been called a threat to an entire civilization. Nations, communities, and families have lost the leaders of today and tomorrow. Healthcare systems have been overwhelmed, economies undermined, and schools robbed of both students and teachers.
It’s easy to become overwhelmed by the statistics—2.1 million people died of AIDS-related illnesses last year.
It’s easy to choose inaction when you feel overwhelmed by the scope of this disease.
But you can be involved. There are ways to make a difference.
