Housing Works is doing its part to make Universal Access a reality here in New York City, across the nation and around the world.

I would like to ask you to reflect on this World AIDS Day by supporting our efforts to provide life-saving services for homeless men, women and children living with HIV and AIDS. Please consider an online donation to Housing Works before the end of the year at www.housingworks.org.

Our mission is to reach the most vulnerable among those affected by the AIDS epidemic and to help them gain stability, independence and dignity while improving their overall health.

Since 1990, Housing Works has provided services to over 17,000 HIV-positive New Yorkers and their families while engaging in advocacy on a national basis. With your help, we can do more.

• Your $25 gift provides one full week of hot meals for a person living with AIDS.
• $100 allows a client to advocate in Albany, NY and Washington, DC for more humane AIDS policies.
• $500 sustains two weeks of supportive AIDS housing.

All contributions support our ongoing efforts to end the twin crises of AIDS and homelessness.

Thank you for your continued generosity during this holiday season.

Sincerely,



Charles King

President and CEO
