Musical event in aid of anti-HIV efforts

KOCHI: The Kerala Positive Women’s Network (KPWN+), a collective of women living with HIV/AIDS, is organising a musical event ‘Pratheekshayude Sangeetham’ (music of hope) featuring top contestants in the Idea Star Singers.

The event, which will double as an HIV awareness show too, will be held on May 30 at A.J. Hall, Kaloor.

The money raised from the show will be used for supporting the activities of KPWN+ which works for the empowerment of women with HIV to live with dignity and without social discrimination.

“We would also like to make use of this platform to spread awareness with regard to the vulnerability of women and children to HIV and AIDS and the social discrimination they face as a community,” said Bindu P.B., president of the organisation.
