“There are countless organizations worldwide that are dedicated in some way to the fight against HIV/AIDS. If you want to help, your very best option is seeking out your local AIDS-related organization and donating time, energy, or resources. However, every monetary contribution helps and the groups listed below are accepting donations right now.”

World AIDS Day - Facts & Resources
“According to UNAIDS estimates, there were 37.2 million adults and 2.2 million children living with HIV at the end of 2004, and during the year 4.9 million new people became infected with the virus. Around half of all people who become infected with HIV do so before they are 25 and are killed by AIDS before they are 35. 95% of the total number of people with HIV/AIDS live in the developing world. But HIV still remains a threat to people of all ages and nationalities.”
