Prevention of illness, education and LIFE are human rights. Stigma, poverty, and apathy have driven the HIV pandemic to a critical level. We can take a stand, break the silence and end the pandemic that has ravaged the world for decades.
Join BCM612 & Pillsbury House, in observing World AIDS Day through the eyes of some of the Twin Cities most prolific writers, spoken word and hip hop artists. Through the power of WORD we will explore, present solutions, inspiration and hope.
Free food, free rapid HIV testing (same day results), free safer sex information and priceless connections. This is a PAY WHAT YOU CAN event. All proceeds will go to Pillsbury’s BCM612 or a local HIV prevention/education/service agency of your choice.
