One Life Experience

When I hear of the bird flu or the SARS pandemic, it strikes a certain level of fear in me. Each time such health scares are made known, I see all precautionary mechanisms moving quickly into place. We are all aware, and in full knowledge, of such diseases.

The AIDS pandemic, however, is not being paid as much attention or tackled with such rigour.

We may think of it as being an overly huge issue to tackle, but it's gotta start somewhere, isn't it? It isn't only about the ABCs of AIDS anymore (that's Abstinence, Be faithful and using Condom by the way). It's about not being afraid, fighting the hate and supporting people with AIDS. It's about doing something to help. It's about a small change for big change.

Come this December, the One Life Experience (OLE) exhibition will be brought into Singapore for the first time. It isn't about scary statistics anymore. It's about the faces behind these numbers.

Check out the OLE in Canada.



We are looking forward to sharing this with you here in Singapore. Hope to see you there.
