it's sad but inspiring...

I'm at work, listening to a bunch of brave kids speak about their experiences with HIV/AIDS. Every year I see these inspiring children and counselors speak about their lives either living with the disease themselves or how they were affected by the infection of someone else. What they're doing is trying to raise awareness and money for Camp Heartland. It's a place in the Minnesota woods where kids come together to share their experiences and feel community that is perhaps lacking in their home lives. There is still so much prejudice and fear surrounding people with this disease. Camp Heartland works to dispel that fear and foster understanding. Check out their site: www.campheartland.com

*also, blogger did not recognize the word 'HIV' and suggested a few replacements-that's ruff
