PWAC NY development news

making a difference in the lives
of people with AIDS and HIV

As funding for AIDS services continues to diminish, and demand for our programs and publications, especially Newsline and SIDAahora, rapidly increases, People With AIDS Coalition of New York (PWAC NY) needs to expand its funding sources by creatively reaching out to individuals, organizations and corporations for support. Here's how YOU can help:

individual contributions

need to play a larger role in the financial stability of PWAC NY and a gift (of any amount) goes a long way toward insuring that PWAC NY will continue to reach thousands of people with its unique programs every year.

other ways you can help:

• Check with your place of business - do they have a matching gift program? Bring your friends into PWAC NY's giving circle. Approach your school, church and community organizations about giving their support to PWAC NY.
• Organize outside benefits ~ organize co-workers, host a dinner party, throw a dance party or hold a raffle.

Whether you can raise $5.00 or $5,000...every bit helps!

how to make a memorial or tribute contribution:

A Memorial Contribution to PWAC NY is a thoughtful way to keep alive the memory and acknowledge the accomplishments of a friend, partner, colleague or family member who has passed away. At the same time, your gift can help reach even more people living with AIDS/HIV with our unique programs.

When you make a Giving Fund Contribution, you can honor friends, colleagues and loved ones on holidays, birthdays, graduations, anniversaries or any time you want to show you care in a way that makes a difference. With your permission, your name and the name of the person being honored through a memorial or giving fund contribution will be acknowledged by PWAC NY.

• A bequest through your will or living trust.

• Designation of PWAC NY as the beneficiary of securities, bank & retirement accounts.
