Every year on December 1st all the schools that have taken part in the Aids Education and Awareness program during the year gather at Mother of Perpetual Help Center for World Aids Day activities. Each of the 20/25 schools send student and teacher representatives to the Center for sports, art, singing and questions and answer competition regarding what they have learned about aids. Children from the children’s home and members from the various HIV groups attend as well and join in the activities.
When our Bishop is free he attends the event as do heads of the Public Health and Social Welfare Departments.
Awards are distributed to the winners of the different competitions. Art competition made up of drawings which show how much students understand about aids—the questions and answers competition about aids gives a clear indication of how much the students understand about aids and the dangers connected with the disease. The Center now has the only WAD activities in the City
