She has been educating individuals about
AIDS for nearly 19 years. She has been actively involved in raising money
for Nebraska AIDS Project/Calico since 2005 and during this time she and
her students have raised nearly $10,000!

Last year, 165 walkers raised more than $8,500! We used that money for food, medicine, transportation, and emergency assistance (housing, utilities, and car repair) to those in-need... We bought materials and paid for speakers to teach our young on how to protect themselves against HIV. We also provided a safe place where those affected by HIV can come together and share how they overcome the challenges of living with HIV.
