You Can Do Something This World AIDS Day

AIDS FactsTomorrow, December 1, is World AIDS Day. And you can do something to make a difference in the battle to defeat the biggest pandemic ever to hit the planet!

Four churches in Santa Barbara, California, recently got together to assemble "Caregiver Kits." These are packets which provide desperately needed resources for families and health workers in Africa who are giving care to people living with AIDS.

On hand was photographer Mark Kuroda, who took these great shots of the attendees at work, writing messages of encouragement to the caregivers, assembling the kits and even praying over them before they went out.

For more of Mark's work, check out www.markkuroda.com/worldvision.

Event participants write messages of encouragement to be included in Caregiver Kits assembled at El Montecito Presbyterian Church.
