Remembering Lives Lost and Uniting for a World Without HIV/AIDS:
Candlelight Memorial Day Commemoration
Today, May 21, 2023, on the solemn occasion of the annual HIV/AIDS Candlelight Memorial Day, we remember the millions of lives lost to this devastating pandemic and renew our commitment to creating a world free from the burden of HIV/AIDS.
It is a day when we reflect & honor those who have passed away, support those living with HIV/AIDS, and advocate for increased awareness, prevention, access to treatment and care, and fostering hope for a brighter future.
Yesterday, at our monthly General Membership Meeting four candle were lit by our members: Mrs. Diana Uchtmann, Mrs. Adelaida Ponson, Mrs. Rita Grant & Mrs. Yvonne Warren.
Black candle: Honoring the ones that lost their lives to HIV/AIDS
Red candle: Supporting the ones living with HIV/AIDS
White candle: Focus on awareness and education on HIV/AIDS
Green candle: Symbolizes hope for a cure
The HIV/AIDS Candlelight Memorial Day serves as a sad reminder of the profound impact that this epidemic continues to have on individuals, families, and communities worldwide.
