    Dancers for Life celebrates its 15th season at Landis Performing Arts Center on Saturday, October 3, 2009, at 8PM, with a pre-concert reception and silent art auction at 6:30PM. Complimentary parking. “Dancers for Life 15…dancing beyond borders” is a benefit dance event to raise awareness and funds for HIV/AIDS care, prevention and educational programs, while also promoting the art of dance throughout the Inland Empire. This year, DFL is extending its reach to support HIV/AIDS programs globally. Through the Loma Linda University Global Health Institute, all the proceeds from DFL15 will be donated to the Fuyang AIDS Orphan Salvation Association (AOS), a grassroots NGO in Central China that cares for children living with HIV/AIDS, provides education for children orphaned by HIV/AIDS, and provides education in communities in which these children live and suffer from stigmatization and discrimination. AOS began its work by providing one HIV+ child with physical examinations in Beijing and securing anti-retroviral treatment. AOS now supports over 600 children and their families, and the total scope of support extends to over 6,000 people. Of the 600 children affected by HIV/AIDS, around 25 children are living with HIV/AIDS. The majority of AOS children do not have HIV/AIDS, but come from families where either one or both parents are living with HIV/AIDS. AOS children come from 300 separate families and over 40 different villages throughout Fuyang and Henan province in China. For more information on AOS, please go to: http://www.faaids.com/en/aboutus.asp.
