Did you know...

There is a group of kids that have been on my heart for a few weeks now. I'm not sure what God is leading me to do yet, but I know that I have been very ignorant.

Did you know that there has NEVER been a case where HIV was transmitted through regular family contact?

Did you know that you do NOT have to fear contracting HIV through casual contact...including sharing food and drinks, helping kids with bloody noses or giving kisses to your little ones?

Did you know that the HIV virus is actually very fragile and dies immediately upon contact with air?

Did you know that with treatment, children with HIV are expected to live a normal lifespan?

I didn't.

And there are millions of orphans around the world who are not being adopted only because they have a scary-sounding virus.

Check out this video from the Truth Pandemic...



As they say, The truth is contagious. Spread it!

Also check out Project HOPEFUL...a great group whose mission is to Educate, Encourage, and Enable families and individuals to advocate for and adopt children with HIV/AIDS.

It is time we put an end to the misinformation of the 80's. Share this with everyone you know and we can save so many.
