This Valentine’s Day, love responsibly. ❤️

Passion is sweet, but protection is sweeter. A gentle reminder: using a condom isn’t just about preventing pregnancy, it’s about protecting yourself and your partner from HIV and other STIs. Real love cares. Real love protects.

No glove, no love. Stay safe, stay informed, and make this Valentine’s Day unforgettable for the right reasons.

LOVE RESPONSIBLY.

February 13 is International Condom Day, launched in 2009 by the AIDS Healthcare Foundation to promote safer s*x and raise awareness about HIV prevention ahead of Valentine’s Day.

: In October 2025, the World Health Organization urged the Philippines to address its rising HIV cases, which have increased sixfold over the past 14 years: https://inqnews.net/whohiv

A major step forward for HIV governance! This aligns LGUs with RA 11166, strengthens Local AIDS Councils, promotes meaningful participation of PLHIV and communities, supports community-led interventions, and integrates HIV into local plans and budgets. It only makes a difference if it reaches ground, so read, share, and help spread this to LGUs and LACs.

RISE Clinic successfully conducted HIV awareness symposium and Free HIV Testing & Counseling to the Armed Forces of the Philippines based in Camp Monteclaro, Miagao, Iloilo.

HIV awareness and testing are not just health issues but they are critical to the strength, resilience, and honor of the Armed Forces. A well-informed and healthy force is a stronger, more unified, and mission-ready AFP.

Big thanks to LTC. Arturo S. Balgos Jr. (INF) PA (Commanding Officer - 61IB, 3ID, PA) for the unwavering support and to all the troops who participated to make this milestone a success!
