New York, NY (PRWEB) August 10, 2016 -- RiseUpToHIV, a grassroots awareness project that created the viral, groundbreaking ‘No Shame About Being HIV+’ campaign in 2013, has launched its ‘My Positive Message’ video campaign. This campaign is calling for short video submissions with the goal of reaching 1 million combined video views by World AIDS Day on December 1, 2016.
The ‘My Positive Message’ campaign is calling for 1-minute personal messages of love, hope, strength and wisdom about people’s experiences living with or affected by HIV in order to encourage, educate and empower others.
