About FACT Bucks County
FACT Bucks County was established in 1992 to raise funds and increase
awareness in an effort to combat the growing AIDS epidemic in Bucks and
Hunterdon Counties. FACT Bucks County is an all volunteer, non-profit
organization with one purpose in mind - to maintain the quality of life
for those infected and affected by HIV and AIDS.
Through our aggressive fund-raising endeavors, FACT
Bucks County is
able to provide essential funding to individuals in the community. Emergency
funds are available to people who have nowhere else to turn for such
things as medication, electric and heating bills, counseling, special
equipment, transportation, rent and other personal needs when all other
funding resources have been exhausted.
In addition, FACT Bucks County makes grant funds available to organizations
that provide services to those who are HIV positive. We also conduct
educational programs on AIDS prevention and awareness. Our educational
programs include special presentations to area schools, healthcare associations
and special interest groups.
Our Executive Board consists of a President, Vice President, Secretary,
and Treasurer. All positions are voted on an annual basis. The combined
talents of the additional Board Members provide the energy and ability
necessary to continue our mission. All activities are governed by the
regulations of a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
Our ability to continue to act as an effective lifeline of support for
those affected by HIV and AIDS depends on both our internal fund-raising
capability and support from organizations who recognize the devastating
impact of this disease on our community.
