From 9 p.m. until 1 a.m., there will be a benefit concert at Campbell Club, a student co-op located at 1670 Alder St., featuring four local bands: the Blast Majesty, the Party Tigers, Superdream and The Water Tower String Band. “What’s unique about the concert is … you can either pay $3 or buy one of our pins,” Goodell said. Handmade by HIV-affected people in Zambia, the red ribbon pins are part of a fundraising effort through FACE AIDS, a national student campaign of which UO Students for Global Health is a chapter. FACE AIDS raises money for Partners in Health, a Boston-based group dedicated to community-based health care around the world. PIH currently has projects in the Boston area; New York City; Madison, Wis.; Puerto Rico; Mexico; Guatemala; Russia; Peru; Lesotho; and Rwanda, where proceeds from the World AIDS Day event will go toward various medications. “They train community health workers to create a sustainable health pro- gram instead of just sending doctors to fix all their problems,” Goodell said. “I think that’s really neat.” Goodell said someone with AIDS can be treated for an entire year for $140, a seem- ingly immeasurable amount of money for many people in Rwanda. He added that many Rwandans with AIDS are of- ten too sick and too weak to go to work, where they make roughly 50 cents a day. For each ribbon sold, FACE AIDS, which started last year at Stanford Univer- sity, will get matching grants from Stanford donors and private citizens throughout Silicon Valley. Since its inception, FACE AIDS has raised $850,000, ap- proximately $2,000 of which has come from the University. Goodell said the goal is to sell all 1,500 pins, which would amount to a total of $7,500. “At the U of O, $5 (per student) would be $100,000,” he said. “With matching grants, that’ll almost be half a million dollars.”
