On Saturday, June 27th, the Pima Rotary Club spent the day at the home of a recipient of aide from TIHAN.  Through this effort, this person living with HIV has had her ceiling in her home resealed and new window coverings.

TIHAN invites the religious community to join them in an informed, sensitive and compassionate response to those affected by HIV/AIDS. They are called to care through education, service and advocacy:

• working within their faith communities to promote education and prevention of HIV/AIDS
• educating clergy and laity in offering support to those affected by HIV/AIDS
• assuring the availability of spiritual care, respecting each individual’s faith and tradition
• advocating in the community for those affected by HIV/AIDS

The Pima Rotary Club is part of Rotary International, the largest humanitarian organization in the world.  The fourth weekend of each month concept was created so that a service project where ‘real work’ is done rather than just writing a check. Through efforts such as these and others, Rotarians aspire to build goodwill and the friendship of the community.   The club also supports projects such as world polio eradication, providing dictionaries to third grade students locally as well as supporting students in Kampala, Uganda.  Meetings are held the first three Fridays of the month at Chad’s Steakhouse at Swan/Ft. Lowell at 11:30 am.  Visit www.pimarotary.org for more information.
