World Aids Day - Wear a Red Ribbon and Raise Awareness

Today, December 1st, marks World Aids Day. It's an opportunity to remember all the people who have died because of this terrible disease and to raise awareness to prevent the spread of it.

Red Ribbons are the symbol for the fight against HIV and AIDS. Today more than ever people that want to support the cause should wear red ribbon pins or red bracelets to help the cause.
