Today, on Zero HIV Stigma Day, Action Wellness stands united in a global call to action to eliminate HIV stigma in all its forms. HIV stigma is not just a public health issue - it is a social justice and human rights crisis that undermines access to care, perpetuates discrimination, and threatens the lives of the communities we serve. We recognize that ending the HIV epidemic is impossible without first dismantling the barriers of stigma and misinformation.

This year’s theme, , reminds us that we all have a role to play in challenging stereotypes, elevating truth over fear, and building a world where every person living with HIV is respected, supported, and empowered. Join us in taking the necessary steps to end stigma - and bring us closer to a future of health equity and justice for our community.

We had a great time at our Volunteer Facilitators and Administrators Retreat last weekend! Special thank you to the F&A committee (Jeff Alexander, John Dawson, Shelley Laws, Whitney Strickland, Matt Flynn and Tony Morrelli) and Jeff Alexander for letting us meet at the WSFS headquarters. The volunteer Facilitators and Administrators assist our Buddy volunteers with mentoring, support and ensuring that our Buddy volunteers know how to fully support our client's needs.

That’s a wrap on our GayBINGO! season 💖 As the curtain falls, we reflect on the unwavering support the community has shown us and the love we’ve received since taking over production of the monthly events in December.

Action Wellness would like to give a huge shoutout and thank you to everyone who came out and played bingo this season. Your support helps us to continue providing quality services and support to our many clients living with HIV.

We also want to thank our incredible volunteers, sponsors, and of course the hardest working girls in showbiz, the Bingo Verifying Divas! In particular we’d like to thank Carlotta Ttendant and Stella D’oro, who host these events and provide nonstop laughter every month.

GayBINGO! continues to be more than just a game - it’s a movement powered by commitment, advocacy, and pride. Stay tuned as we announce our 2025-26 season!
