Student Global AIDS Project

Who are we?
Student Global AIDS Project
     The Student Global AIDS Project is a relatively new group on Pitt's campus. It was founded in the fall of 2003 by a few students that realized the seriousness of the AIDS pandemic and wanted to make a difference.  It is a registered SVO volunteer organization and the only student organization on campus dedicated to global HIV/AIDS issues.

     The purpose of SGAP is to raise awareness of the global AIDS pandemic within and outside of Pittsburgh. We do this through educational events, fundraising, volunteer activities, and political activism.

     In previous years, we focused on political HIV/AIDS funding and prevention and on raising funds for our Pennies for the Pandemic campaign. Recently we have been influencing students to get tested for HIV/AIDS, and we’re concentrating on aiding the Orphan Support Program of Karagwe, Tanzania.
