The Global AIDS Alliance Fund is mobilizing grassroots activists across New Hampshire to help raise the profile of global AIDS issues during the 2008 presidential campaign. With New Hampshire's primary just a few weeks away, we need your help to get the word out to the public and the media—and call on the candidates to endorse a bold plan for action on global AIDS and poverty.

Special Thanks
The GAA Fund co-sponsored two public awareness and media events to commemorate World AIDS Day on November 30. Organized in partnership with the Student Global AIDS Campaign, Jubilee USA Network, and local AIDS service organizations, the events featured former UN Special Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa Stephen Lewis, and focused on the need for government leaders and other decision-makers to keep their promises to achieve universal access to HIV/AIDS services by 2010.
