I am writing you today about a project that I support, the Tri-State AIDS Holiday Project.This project met the needs of 560 adults and 354 children throughout the Tri-State last year.This year the project is serving 375 low-income households impacted by HIV/AIDS from 36 counties in Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky.By working with medical providers, we are helping households with family members who are on disability because they are too ill to work and families that are still working but having trouble making ends meet.

For so many, the gifts we give these households are the only boost they will get during the holiday season. For those who have made deliveries, and it’s very moving to brighten the day of the families that are struggling both financially and emotionally.We can only raise funds for this project with your support. Any donation you make is greatly appreciated, and will work to make a real difference in the lives of these families.

A donation from you allows us to provide each of these families a $100 grocery store gift card. Your gift today also allows us to concentrate on getting groups together to sponsor gift needs and organize deliveries to 375 low-income families throughout the Tri-State.

Checks can be sent to: TSA Holiday Project, PO Box 2901, Evansville, In 47728.Or, you can make a secure donation online at: www.AIDSHolidayProject.org.

Thanks for caring about this cause and for any support you can give this important project!

  1. Stephanie, thank you for this letter. We too support this cause and know how difficult it is for many HIV/AIDS citizens and their families to struggle to make ends meet. HIV/AIDS can be a very devastating disease and many times strips the patient of his/her ability to work. Please consider a donation no matter how small to support this very worthy cause.
