Greeting future Board Members,
I am a twenty three year old who has recently started a non profit organization. I am in need of board members who can help me carry the organization's mission as well hold committees while serving on the board. I am seeking a board that will be diverse in age , education, as well ethnicity. When I created this organization, I was inspired through issues in my own life. As a youth living with HIV/AIDS I knew something had to be done. Seeing the ever increasing number of youth affected by HIV/AIDS, I made it my life's mission to do my part working with children, youth and young adults living with the virus. We are an organization that works on the needs of HIV positive children, youth and young adults from the ages of five to thirty to work on their health, education and social skills in a safe environment.
We plan to prepare today's youth living with HIV/AIDS to become leaders who empower others with respect who are capable, resilient and embody cultural pride. One of our major priorities is to increase public awareness in the HIV/AIDS youth community. I am writing you to ask you for your support to help out with H.Y.P.E.
This dream can only be possible with contributions from people like you. Without your help we will not be able to perform the services that we hope to provide to our youth living with HIV/AIDS. Our community is very excited and eager to see this project succeed. You can be a part of that excitement by supporting our cause.
Thank you for your time and for considering this request. I look forward to working with you and creating a stronger community.
Thank You in Advance

Description
About our founder:
On March 28, 2010, on his eighteenth birthday, Robert was diagnosed with AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome). In December of the same year, he was also diagnosed with Cancer. Despite these lives changing events, Robert prevailed. With much prayer and strong will he beat cancer and became HIV undetectable (controlled).
After three years of living with the virus, Robert formed his own organization, HIV Positive Youth That Pledge to Empower Themselves and Others or (H.Y.P.E). H.Y.P.E was created from inspiration, love, and compassion.
