With breast cancer month in October taking us up to World AIDS Day on the 1st December, Cindy has undertaken to be a little ‘crazy’, some may say abnormal; to honour these two issues that are very close to home – join us to see what it is all about and perhaps this may encourage you to do something too!
Create Awareness!!

Hi All,
I am giving a talk on the 4th October 2012 and would like to address some of the issues you have experienced around stigma.
If you can give me something in about two hundred (200) words or a very short paragraph, that I can bring this to the attention of the forum I am presenting to.
It is local government, mining, corporates and other institutions that need to hear these ongoing issues.
Secondly, I would also like some feedback from those of you that this concerns, if, how and what AID My Journey-Support may have done to enhance your life; just a brief statement.
I would like your permission to use it so feel free to sign (anon, pseudonym or any other ‘name’ you wish to use, be creative) 😉
I am going to use this as a marketing tool to encourage support and sponsorships from corporates, individuals and other institutions as I need funding to maintain the centre.
Use my email address if you wish: cindy@cindypivacic.co.za
I find it intriguing and somewhat overwhelming that so many people are eager (admirable I might add) to support a cause. On one site over 6,290 people ‘like’ the page of a beautiful animal but when it come to the human race, that’s us; you, me, your brother, sister, mom, dad, aunt, uncle, cousin and the list goes on, are not nearly as important a cause to support.
Is it FEAR, ignorance or just plain……………..it’s them not me?
What has happened to your compassion for the human race, pray tell, I would love to hear.
I can guarantee you, you may not know it but someone you know IS living with the HI virus but because they are fearful of rejection they choose not to share their status with you.
Eventually they find themselves in poor health with nobody to turn to and guess what? They seek out others like themselves and hope for the best! OR they also become…….EXTINCT.
Not everyone has ’brought it upon themselves’ as some will warrant their lack of support by saying.
My question to you is; what’s hidden in your closet? (before you judge, think!!) We all have something we don’t want let out of the bag. Yours is just different to mine and theirs 😉
There are organizations out there like AID My Journey-Support that are trying to be a sustaining force and empower individuals during this unplanned phase of their lives, don’t think it will not affect you, it will in the long run.
I hope those of you that are so benevolent and concerned enough will think about your fellow men/women that also need your enormously generous goodwill.
What are you going to do?
If anyone would like more information I have some projects that I wish to get up and running which will assist in people being able to have skills to generate an ongoing income for themselves and their families.
Project 1: Computer Skills Initiative
Project 2: Training Support Group Facilitator Course
Thank you for taking the time to read this. May you share the care!
Spring has arrived and I wish you a fantastic final quarter for 2012.
AID My Journey-Support is a Non-Profit Organisation (NPO 093-243) with offices based in Pinetown but not limited to region.
A proposal indicating the NPO’s initiatives and project plans of the organisation is available on request. I trust that you will consider this proposal as part of your CSI (Corporate Social Investment) Programme in support and empowerment of our community.
PLEASE NOTE: I am a Speaker and IEC (Information-Education-Communication) Facilitator on HIV & AIDS. Quotations are available on request.
If you have Health & Wellness Days planned and need my services, kindly contact me.
WORLD AIDS DAY 1st DECEMBER falls on a Saturday. If you are planning an event for this day, please keep this in mind.
This year the talk topic is:
a) ‘Take Responsibility’ which covers not only responsibility for yourself but in the workplace and the community.
b) What you as a company or individual can do to assist in making changes.
c) Talk content negotiable.
Please feel free to share/forward to the relevant person as well as with other companies that you may feel will consider supporting this initiative.
Coconut Oil is the only oil once heated that does NOT turn into trans fat (the bad fats) even Olive oil turns into trans fat when heated!!
The health benefits of coconut oil include hair care, skin care, stress relief, maintaining cholesterol levels, weight loss, increased immunity, proper digestion and metabolism, relief from kidney problems, heart diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, HIV and cancer, dental care, and bone strength. These benefits of coconut oil can be attributed to the presence of lauric acid, capric acid and caprylic acid, and its properties such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, antifungal, antibacterial, soothing, etc.
How is Lauric Acid used by our body? The human body converts lauric acid into monolaurin which is claimed to help in dealing with viruses and bacteria causing diseases such as herpes, influenza, cytomegalovirus, and even HIV. It helps in fighting harmful bacteria such as listeria monocytogenes and heliobacter pylori, and harmful protozoa such as giardia lamblia.
As a result of these various health benefits of coconut oil, though its exact mechanism of action was unknown, it has been extensively used in Ayurveda, the traditional Indian medicinal system.
The Coconut Research Center has compiled various references on scientific research done on coconut oil.
