Adam Hatsav-3/5/10-Aid for AIDS-second visit

On Friday March 5, 2010, our group split up into to pairs.  One which went that day and another which went a couple days before to the New York Aid for AIDS office on Wednesday.  I was among the group that went on Friday. It was Katherine, Lenny, Jasper and I.  At  the building we meet up with a person named Hannah who works there and shows us what to do every time we go there.  We asked someone working there, named David, why he took upon this job.  He replied saying that is was a subject he was passionate about. We also found out that the organization works directly with the countries it sends it supplies by sending people over there. I might have basically just folded condom packaging but i also learned as well.

Went there fro, six to nine at night meeting up with someone who has connections to our school, named Shaun Sheppard. We meet him at the second floor and then he later took us up to the third floor were we packaged and distributed cards and posters to spread awarness about the New york Aids walk taking place in May after the Social Justice Project.

Adam-2/5/10-Aid for AIDS

Last Friday, I went with my group (Olivia, Matan, Alma, Katherine, Jasper, Lenny) to an Aid for Aids clinic on Wall Street.  We learned about how the organization was run and their mission.  The organization gathers donations, medicine, and wheelchairs for people in 3rd world countries, which can’t afford treatment for health-related illnesses and diseases such as aids.  We took a tour of their facility and helped distribute posters and pamphlets. It was truly an amazing experience.
