AARTH was founded initially to meet the needs of affected communities with humility and compassion often met with rejection. As HIV/AIDS care and research has transformed, the landscape for AARTH has and will continue to evolve.  As we look ahead to the next fiscal year, the goals of the board are to become more involved in philanthropy for the organization including organizing a fundraiser, increasing our knowledge related to non profit board leadership and responsibilities, and to recruit new board members with diverse talents. By engaging in these activities, the impact and capacity of AARTH will continue to grow during this fiscal year and beyond.
