Trillion Penny Drive
commemorates World AIDS Day (December 1) to honor and remember those individuals living with HIV/AIDS. There are currently 40 million people in the world who are infected with HIV/AIDS. Millions more are friends, children, cousins, mothers, fathers, siblings, and grandparents to those who are infected with HIV. World AIDS Day gives us an opportunity to recognize the global impact of AIDS & to honor those who are directly affected by the virus.
