blood:water mission

from - smijer

A dear friend went to a benefit concert in Chattanooga last weekend for blood:water mission. This organization was founded by the contemporary Christian band, Jars of Clay.

Blood:Water Mission takes a community-centered approach to AIDS that includes establishing basic conditions necessary for health, providing vital medical care and clean water, working toward social equality, addressing the constraints of poverty, and empowering communities to take ownership of their own long-term healthy development. This kind of integrated approach is essential to winning the battle against AIDS.

bloodwater doesn't seem to be indexed on CharityNavigator.org, so I don't know much about it - but it certainly appears that their hearts and heads are in the right place. Salut!
