A Night to Fight HIV/AIDS in Africa

The Sankofa Center for African Dance and Culture will be hosting an event fundraiser for ongoing programs in the fight against HIV/AIDS in Africa.

In collaboration with World AIDS Day, the Sankofa Center for African Dance and Culture invites you to A Night to Fight. The Center personnel will be hosting an important gathering to raise funds and awareness towards the fight against HIV/AIDS in Ghana, West Africa.

Come out and enjoy an evening of entertainment and leave feeling inspired, informed and fulfilled in knowing you've actively contributed to the fight against HIV/AIDS in Africa.

The night will include:

Wine tasting - wines from vineyards in California and Oregon
Great dishes prepared by the reputable Wild Note Cafe
Live music from the jazz duo, The Hager Rivera Project
Photo exhibit and silent auction (including many items from Ghana)
Meet and hear from the directors of the Sankofa Center

The Sankofa Center uses the dance and music of Africa's past to foster health and understanding of HIV/AIDS in the current generation in hopes of preventing the destruction of the future. All proceeds will go to the Sankofa Center to finance the continuation of their free HIV/AIDS programs, services, testing and treatment in Africa as well as the upcoming construction costs for their community-based health center.
