Proving that it's never too early to start shilling for the holidays ( especially when it's for a worthy cause ) , Better Existence with HIV ( BEHIV ) —a Chicago and Evanston-based AIDS service organization—is selling holiday ornaments to benefit its programs and clients.
The ornament, entitled 'Light Everlasting,' is made of solid brass with a 24-karat gold-and-enamel finish. The international symbol for AIDS awareness, the red ribbon, is centered in the glowing flame of the eternal light.
The cost of the ornament is $18.
For information about the ornaments, call 847-475-2115, ext. 112, or e-mail ericnelson@behiv.org . |
