WORLD VISION EXPERIENCE: AIDS

The Pima County Fair is pleased to announce the interactive and national touring,

“World Vision Experience: AIDS” exhibit, which will be on display at the Pima County Fair, April 16 – 26, 2009. The walk thru exhibit helps raise awareness about the effects of the AIDS pandemic on children in developing countries, specifically Africa. The exhibit is appropriate for ages 10 and up, however parents are encouraged to use their own discretion. Details of the exhibit can be downloaded at www.worldvisionexperience.org

The Pima County Fair normally hosts educational exhibits. Increasingly over the past few years, the Pima County Fair provided exhibits and activities that focused on human rights and humanitarian issues. Some of which have included Holocaust memorial exhibits, Save Darfur, tributes to American prisoners of war and victims of 911, along with a single day event, “Raise Your Voice” to bring awareness about the murderous violence being committed against young girls and women in the border town of Juarez, MX.

The Pima County Fair draws nearly 240,000 visitors with a month long advertising campaign; both of which serve as an excellent platform to raise awareness and give voice to the suffering of others. With the help of our partner, World Vision and through the grass roots efforts of the local faith based community, we believe lives and hearts will be touched by visiting this exhibit at the Pima County Fair, April 16 – 26^th.
