Lifebeat Daily Diary
Friday July 30 ASO - Philadelphia Community Health Atlernative

I really feel like I am being cliche when I say that every day is great. It really has been!! Every city is different and the energy of each is unique.

Today was BUSY! There was a crowd at at the table for most of the day. Once again the female condoms were the big attraction. So many women are interested in trying them out. We distributed over 500 in a litlle over an hour - maybe an hour and a half. One woman commented that the reason that female condoms go so quickly is because there are very few prevention items that are marketed specifically for women - Interesting!

Once again I was stuck by the number of people who just stopped to say thank you for being here. So many lives have been touched by HIV and AIDS. So many people shared stories of brothers and sisters - friends who they have lost. It really makes being hot and sweaty out here worthwhile.
