Different sectors. One community. One shared commitment.

This May 29, 2026 at St. Paul's Hospital of Iloilo, Inc., we gather for the International AIDS Candlelight Memorial — a day of remembrance, solidarity, music, prayer, coffee, and conversations grounded in connection, care, and lived experience.

Whichever sector you may come from, your presence matters. The HIV response has always been shaped by people who chose to stand with others, listen to stories, and keep showing up with compassion.

Share the slide that represents your sector and let your voice be part of this collective remembrance and call for hope. Because beyond the sectors we represent, we are one community.
