Since its inception in 1992, the all-volunteer Gift for Life organization has united our industry against HIV/AIDS, and more than $5 million has been raised to date through special events, cause-related marketing and corporate and individual donations.
However, AIDS hasn’t been eradicated and it hasn’t been cured. Your support is critical now more than ever. In the United States alone, 1.2 million people are currently living with HIV/AIDS, and nearly 40,000 Americans become infected every year. More than 40% of new HIV infections in the U.S. affect those aged 13 to 29, and 60% do not realize they are infected, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
Our long-time charity partner, DIFFA (Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS), our charity partner since 2008, is working toward an AIDS-free generation. It is one of the country’s largest proponents of educational and direct care programs for people living with HIV/AIDS. Since its founding in 1984, DIFFA has mobilized the immense resources of these design communities and has granted more than $44M to hundreds of AIDS service organizations nationwide.
