Acting on AIDS is a grassroots organization that was founded by Christian college students as Seattle Pacific University. The purpose of this organization is to raise awareness, promote advocacy, and transform the response to global AIDS and related issues of injustice. Students, campus organizations, and ministries take part in the organization to create awareness and discipleship efforts to change the public opinion about AIDS. It soon gained the support of World Vision , and now Christian college students across the nation have formed a network of Acting on AIDS chapters. Acting on AIDS uses creative activism to promote their cause by hosting a number of fundraising events such as Broken Bread, Do You See Orange?, Night of Nets, Lives are at Stake, and Religion that Works Day. Acting on AIDS also promotes discipleship through their organization. By using resources such as Want Less Give More and 40 Days Toward Justice the members of the organization engage their faith and use it to answer the tough questions. Since its inception in August 2004, Acting on AIDS has grown to approximately 190 campus chapters around the United States . Do You See Orange? Do You See Orange? is one of the most successful campaigns Acting on AIDS has started. The point of this event is to saturate campus with eye catching t shirts that portray basic awareness of the global AIDS pandemic. Shirts are a bright orange with Orphan written on the front. This is used to empahsize the fact that one out of every twenty sub Saharan African children are orphaned as a result of AIDS. T shirts may be purchased off of the main website.
