Light To Unite - Light a candle and help towards AIDS/HIV research

Posted by andrew on December 1st, 2006

 

On the “Light to Unite” Web site, visitors can light a virtual candle, share stories about how HIV/AIDS has impacted their lives, and help increase awareness of the epidemic by e-mailing a friend. For each virtual candle lit through December 31, 2006, Bristol-Myers Squibb will contribute $1 to the National AIDS Fund, up to a maximum contribution of $100,000, to benefit AIDS service organizations in underserved communities in the U.S. Web site visitors will also have the opportunity to increase the impact of the Bristol-Myers Squibb contribution to the National AIDS Fund by making an additional donation on the National AIDS Fund Web site at http://www.aidsfund.org/.

I remember that I wrote about this exactly one year ago (See here); how time flies! It’s basically the same (and as simple) as last year - you just need to visit their site (LightToUnite.org) to light a virtual candle and Bristol-Myers Squibb will donate $1 towards the National AIDS Fund. It’s World AIDS Day today, so please do your bit! You can also read stories about AIDS sufferers after lighting up the candles.

Go ahead and tell as many people as you can!

Thanks for dropping by my blog. Also going over to light my own virtual candle.

No prob, Adam. Thanks for dropping by here too.

Just realised that your blog layout changes everytime I refresh it. That’s amzing. I especially love the 3 column layout and am looking for something like that for my blog.

Eh, Adam…how come you ended up in United States (look at your comment).

By the way, my blog isn’t amazing…It just that I’m currently testing some new themes and you happen to refresh it at the same time! LoL!
