80% of people said they would give if someone asked................Tamara will ask.
I knew I wanted to give back at an early age when my older brother was diagnosed and later passed away from AIDS at age 31 in 1991. I was inspired and moved by the people and organizations that reached out and helped at a time when little was known about the disease but yet still dedicated time and resources to help.
