Do You See ORANGE?

Posted in General at 8.21 pm

Coming this Spring: InterVarsity is partnering with a number of other student organizations to bring awareness to the global HIV/AIDS crisis. There are several parts to this campaign:

  • We are asking 5% of the campus to wear a bright orange Tshirt with the word “ORPHAN” on the front. This statistic represents the 1 in 20 children in sub-Saharan Africa who have been orphaned by AIDS.
  • We will be engaging students around campus in talking about the deeper issues related to AIDS, what God has to say and how we can respond.
  • We will stand in solidarity with AIDS victims across the world by taking part in a Broken Bread meal, in which we will raise both money and awareness surrounding the issue, as well as discuss how the message of Jesus is inexorably intertwined with the issue of HIV/AIDS.We would LOVE for you to be part of this with us.

To order a tshirt for yourself, your friends or on behalf of your entire organization, order here. If you have any other questions about the campaign, its purpose or how you can be involved, please email us at orangeinfo@intervarsityosu.org.
