educate about prevention, and provide counseling and support. We’ve
seen progress and have reached millions, but there is much to be done,
and we need your help to do more. I have some exciting news to share! ADRA will soon launch a new

essential resources to help you tackle the challenge of stopping AIDS.
We expect it will be an indispensable tool in your efforts. Complete our online form and we will email you when the new site is available.”
