Hello there,
Jorgie here reaching out to you to join me in reaching an extraordinary goal: a world without HIV/AIDS. You may have seen over the past few months articles and news about a functional "cure" to HIV. These stories are developing, but they are true. We are closer than ever to finding the light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to this terrible disease. Please take a few minutes to read the following articles to understand these milestones:
ABC News: 14 HIV Patients Have 'Functional Cure'
MSNBC News: A baby now free of HIV has doctors talking about 'cure'
I have been a part of the AIDS Walk for the past 5 years exactly for this reason: to find a cure and eradicate HIV/AIDS, by raising money to fund research, and to provide services for the people that are afflicted by this disease. Won't you join me in this endeavor? Join me by becoming a member of my team, Ab Fab for a Cure, and raise funds along with me; or by helping me reach my goal by making a donation to my fundraising page.

There are many other ways to get involved as well: Start your own team, support others who are walking, spread the word, help at your local GLBT center, etc. Hope you are able to support in your own way. If you need help or would like to contact me about the AIDS Walk you can reach me by email or via cellphone.
Get active. Get involved. Every step we take is a step towards a world without HIV/AIDS.
