Raising Money for HIV: Silent Auction
Submitted by: Tara
Yancy, Community Outreach Chair
The Community Outreach Committee, in conjunction with the Fall Conference Committee, hosted a Silent Auction at Fall Conference to benefit Baltimore Pediatric HIV Program, Inc. The Baltimore Pediatric HIV Program, Inc. services HIV/AIDS infected or affected children and their families.
This awesome organization is the only pediatric day and respite program in Baltimore City servicing the HIV/AIDS community. The program also provides education and preventative services to the community, technical assistance to other childcare providers, public school systems and various community organizations and coordinates resources for women, children and families impacted by HIV/AIDS. On Tuesday, we were honored to have some members of the youth group from Baltimore Pediatric share their personal stories of surviving and living with HIV/AIDS. In support of this program, there were 25 items auctioned and purchased. We raised a grand total of $3,050 for Baltimore Pediatric HIV Program, Inc. On behalf of the Community Outreach Committee, I would like to thank the donors, participants and contributors for making this auction a huge success!!!
