National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Month is observed in March. Two organizations, 100 Women and Desert AIDS Project, aim to empower women and girls living with or affected by HIV/AIDS through a day-long event on March 23, 2015. The event will feature hair styling, makeup tips, lectures on health, beauty and careers, and a fashion show. It will conclude with shopping trips for donated clothing. The goal is to raise awareness of HIV/AIDS among women and girls while also helping them feel empowered through improved self-image.
