Students opened their performance with a song composed with the help of Mentoring and Career Guidance Coordinator Winnie about the need to be faithful because of the reality that HIV doesn't choose; HIV does not discriminate against age, race or gender.
Yvonne, one of our students who has just returned from boarding school, then introduced the group, and delivered a fantastic solo performance poem about the real dangers of HIV/AIDS and the importance of being careful (view her performance on our YouTube channel).
Students then performed a short play dramatizing how promiscuity can lead to HIV, emphasizing the importance of protecting your body and thinking of future consequences.
Student Mevin also performed a rap to the audience, followed by a poem with the message, "I gave you my love and you gave me HIV".
This was the first time Hatua students have performed at a public event. They delivered a fantastic performance, sending a poignant message to the audience about the reality that HIV does not choose its victims and that we all need to be careful.
Students spent a busy week planning for and preparing the performance, taking the task seriously, and were very enthusiastic about being involved in HIV/AIDS awareness in Likoni.
Winnie says, "This was of great motivation and will keep up the spirit of giving back to the community."
