"THE LEAST YOU CAN DO"

Wear it with pride for the greater good of having more AIDS-aware folks
where you live.
Set the trend
Make talking about HIV/AIDS with each other, educating each other about the
devastating impact of the virus – and how you can help prevent it – cool
again. There’s really nothing cooler than saving someone’s life, or making
life better for someone who is HIV-positive. Word of mouth is the best, most
genuine and most authentic way to get everyone in on the cause.
Make some noise
Open up – help stop discrimination and stigma. As part of the new young
generation, you’re in the best position to make the most of digital
technology and advanced resources, not to mention your own instincts,
compassion and conscience to reach out as much as you can and empathise with
the plight of your HIV-positive friends. Speak out about it if you believe
that we are all souls just the same. Seek out basic information and details
on programmes and events from particular organisations to see how you can
make a difference.
