Paint for Peace is a peaceful, positive event hosted by HEAL International at Arizona State University. Paint for Peace creates a space to express hope for the future of HIV/AIDS. We aim to inspire, educate, empower, and offer hope for all those infected, affected, and at risk. Canvas and paint are provided for you and your friends for FREE! We only ask that you include a red ribbon anywhere in your painting in honor of those infected or affected by HIV/AIDS.
We will be hosting many local public health and sexual health organizations from around the valley and from ASU. These organizations will be present to provide information about HIV, STIs, and other important topics. We will also have FREE TESTING. Come join us on Hayden Lawn for a fun and peaceful way to promote HIV/AIDS awareness while also fighting to reduce stigma. We hope to see you there!

Each year, our Community Health Facilitators and Teaching Partners work passionately during the course of our program in Tanzania to deliver a day of joy, laughter, and awareness. They work pamoja (“together”) with village officials and school headmasters to create a space for anyone to take action in community health. They collaborate with incredible community members to play games, put on HIV stigma plays, hear people's stories, and encourage HIV testing. Community Day represents love, acceptance, joy, and a new future for people to act on that which is of importance to their health and quality of life. Hundreds of people come to Akeri field to join hands with us and teach us what it looks like to stand together and push for community health.

Walkers and Runners in this event can register as an individual, form a team, or donate to walkers and runners to help them reach their fundraising goal.
