Love Heals: The Alison Gertz Foundation

Alison Gertz was infected with HIV through a single sexual encounter when she was 16.  After losing her battle with HIV in 1992, her three best friends co-founded Love Heals, the Alison Gertz Foundation for AIDS Education, in an effort to continue Ali's mission to educate young people about AIDS. Love Heals empowers young people in the fight against HIV. Love Heals also creates and distributes educational materials, shares its expertise and advocates for young people’s right to HIV/AIDS education. This wonderful organization partners with hundreds of schools and community groups throughout New York City and surrounding areas. Help support Love Heals and AIDS education by attending their 20th Anniversary Gala, November 9th.  Donate HERE. Website Twitter Facebook
