More and more people, places, and groups support a South African charity called the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) and IRONWORKS hopes that you will take an interest in our fund-rasing goal.
What is TAC?
TAC is a grassroots organization that campaigns for greater HIV treatment for South Africans, including many life-saving interventions and implementation of transmission prevention programs. South Africa has one of the worst HIV/ AIDS epidemics on earth. Fuelled by poverty and lack of community resources, the nation risks being overwhelmed by the AIDS crisis. Billions of rand are needed every year to fight the epidemic. TAC has battled an often complacent government over inadequate policies, and educates people about the AIDS crisis and how they can take action to help themselves and others.
What is the goal of SL TAC?
It costs $720 US dollars (approximately 200,000L) to provide each person with anti-retroviral drugs for ONE year. Our long-range goal is to raise enough Linden to provide treatment to five individuals (1,000,000L).
What can I do to help?
Please be generous. We have more and more tip jars around SL, soo n to be replaced with networked donation kiosks. Also, many clubs will be hosting charity events to support TAC, and your attendance will be appreciated!
