 The Women's Giving Circle
This giving circle is for women who believe that every woman deserves access to the best healthcare, support, and education.
ASA's Women's Giving Circle is dedicated to supporting the Women Rising Project, whose mission is to strengthen women who are living with HIV and AIDS. Women Rising Project achieves this simple objective through programs and activities that provide education, connection, support,
advocacy and peer leadership opportunities.
We need women like you to make a difference for the hundreds of women who have grown thanks to the Women Rising Project.

 I joined the Women Rising Project at AIDS Services of Austin because I
needed a fellowship of women who empower, encourage, and educate.
When I first found out that I was positive, I felt so discouraged. But
with my faith and with the Women Rising Project, I have transformed into
a leader.
Now I want to help other women avoid the challenges I have
faced in my life. I tell my story because it removes some of the stigma
associated with being HIV-positive and because I think telling my story will
help keep other women from getting infected.”
