"The administration is challenging our access to medication, our access to healthcare, our access to HIV services. So where we're back to is that we need to be activists. We need to be in the resistance because our lives are at stake again." Read the full interview at linktr.ee/PWN_USA ❤️‍🔥

When you give to PWN-USA, you’re not just donating — you’re fueling leadership, safety, dignity, and real change for women and gender-diverse people living with HIV.

Your gift today can:
💛 Support someone joining a virtual support circle
💛 Provide stigma-free safety and disclosure training

Self-care isn’t selfish — it’s a community practice.

When you give, you’re not just supporting one woman or one person. You’re strengthening the entire movement fighting for autonomy.

Your care is collective care.

Despite the government’s lack of recognition, we still honor World AIDS Day today. Today is a day to recognize the impact of HIV, call out the attacks on our community, and fight for a future where all people living with HIV can live dignified lives free of stigma, violence, and criminalization.

Even in the hardest seasons, joy finds a way to break through.

Laughter connects us. Love keeps us whole.

Your gift helps protect the spaces where women can breathe, laugh, and feel human again.

She didn’t have to struggle alone.

Because of community, she was able to access care, support, and dignity.

This Giving Tuesday, your generosity makes that possible for the next woman, too.

Power shouldn’t be a privilege.

Every woman deserves the right to rest, to heal, to choose, and to thrive.

As Giving Tuesday approaches, we’re standing together for autonomy and wellness — for every woman.
