UNTIL THERE'S A CURE FOUNDATION
I used to volunteer for this organization in middle school and I truly feel like my participation made a difference. Until There's A Cure is an incredible foundation that will certainly make a significant contribution in our fight to cure HIV. To all of you looking to get involved, this is the foundation for you!

Make sure that retailers around the global would give UTAC a chance to sell their bracelets
UTAC is an amazing organization. Their employees are extremely passionate and dedicated to fighting the HIV/AIDS pandemic. The bracelets are all beautiful and the majority have unique stories behind them.

Until There's A Cure is an amazing organization that raises funds and awareness for HIV/AIDS through sales of their bracelets. Their funds also go to other HIV/AIDS organizations that provide prevention education, care services and vaccine development. Their dedicated staff are always looking for new ways to reach out to the community and educate them about how to fight this pandemic.

I help out sometimes at Until There's A Cure (UTAC) and from the inside I can tell you that the thing I like best about UTAC is how lean they are. They give a huge portion of their donations and bracelet proceeds to the cause of fighting HIV/AIDS. This organization is truly there to help, not to make a name for themselves. If you dig deep and really look at many of the big name charities, only a very small proportion of all donations actually goes to charity. The rest goes for their overhead, their marketing or their big legal teams. Not at Until There's A Cure.
The bracelets they sell are not only great looking, but each style tells a story. Many of them are made by HIV positive women in Africa and the funds go back to their villages to help them live and thrive with their disease and to help the children orphaned by the disease. This is a powerful motivator for me to help.
I hope you will too...Until There's A Cure

How did this volunteer experience make you feel?
More fulfilled than the fashion business I was in before. But that's not tough.
Love their bracelets just as much as what they represent and provide funding for! They've done an awesome job of increasing the different types of bracelets offered, making it a great place to get gifts for any person and have a variety for yourself. I love getting & giving these bracelets knowing that I'm supporting HIV/AIDS research and outreach.

Continue diversifying bracelet line
Until There's A Cure is an extremely worthwhile cause to be involved with. Its diverse team and volunteers dedicate countless hours to the development of AIDS research, though many are not personally impacted by HIV/AIDS.
I bought my Until There's A Cure bracelet 15 years ago and still wear it. I wear it not only as an accessory but as a reminder of how much this organization has furthered AIDS research in the last decade.

I worked with UTAC as an intern and found it incredibly meaningful because of the integrity of the organization. The organization was continually thinking about how to expand, specifically to engage youth and encourage earlier HIV/AIDS education and activism.
