Hello TB Photovoice family,
As the year comes to a close, we wish to acknowledge your kindness and generosity. Your support for TB Photovoice has been instrumental in our continuing dedication to raising the voices of persons impacted by tuberculosis. Last Saturday, December 1, was World AIDS Day. Our TB Photovoice home office in Washington state collaborated in a World AIDS Day march and commemorative event in the city of Everett. We exhibited photos associated with the Nuestra Casa Initiative, an extension project of TB Photovoice groups along the U.S.-Mexico border. We shared the photos by Photographer Damien Schumann which highlighted the personal perspective of persons impacted both by HIV and TB. A very powerful experience for all those who attended. In early 2011, TB Photovoice was contacted by the Indus Hospital Research Center in Karachi, Pakistan. They were interested in receiving technical support to implement a TB photovoice project in their city. Our trainer Eva Moya provided excellent guidance and their project was a big success! They called their project "Tasweer-e-Zindagi" (tasweer is picture/photograph and zindagi is life) and this newly released video is a fantastic representation of their tremendous work! We are looking forward to new possibilities in 2013 and hope that you will continue to follow us on Facebook, the TB Photovoice website, or supporting us on GlobalGiving. All the best to you and your family this holiday season. Sincerely, Teresa Rugg
