World Vision Experience: HIV/Aids: Step Into Africa exhibit coming to Alta Loma


OK, this isn't for Upland but it's still local. The following was sent to me by the good people over at World Vision and Hillside Community Church in Alta Loma.

Hillside Community Church, in Alta Loma, is hosting the World Vision Experience: AIDS exhibit, beginning May 15th. Visitors walk through a replica of an African village and experience the effects of the AIDS pandemic in a real way as they listen to a personal audio track relating the story of one of four children – Kombo, Babirye, Emmanuel, and Mathabo.



The event will take place at:

Hillside Community Church

5354 Haven Ave., Alta Loma, CA 91737

Exhibit information can be found at www.worldvisionexperience.org/hillsidechurch



The free exhibit will be open to the public from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. every day starting Friday, May 15, 2009, through Friday, May 22, 2009, except Sunday, May 17, 2009, the hours are 11:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
