“It’s awesome to know that there are other young people who truly understand what it’s like to be affected by HIV.” – Joshua, GET CONNECTED member
Navigating classes, dating and friendships in high school can be tough, and it gets a lot more complicated when you’re living with HIV.
YouthCO’s Get Connected program links up HIV-positive 15 to 20 year-olds with support, education and most importantly – other teens just like them. I’m proud to say that YouthCO is the only organization in the province offering this service and the program does not receive any direct government funding.
Get Connected is truly a grassroots endeavour and runs on the generosity of people like you. At this time of year we can all do a bit more, so we’re asking you to reach out and support our youngest members with a suggested one-time gift of $20. Or, choose to become a monthly donor.
Please Give Now. From $5 to $50, every dollar counts!
Sincerely,
Jesse Brown
Co-Executive Director
YouthCO HIV & Hep C Society
“I think it’s great that a program such as Get Connected exists. It’s uplifting to know that there is an open space and a friendly atmosphere where I can share my experiences and socialize with other HIV-positive people.” – Joshua
