As the name implies, Dance4life is a campaign designed to alert youth regarding HIV and AIDS and to craft respect in the mind and heart of people towards the vulnerable community through the universally accepted medium of dance and music. The power of music, the energy, dance and the emotive stories from various parts of the world made the program so lively. It proved to be an amazing experience, a life time memory that will be cherished in every conrner of my life. I drowned my hesitation, got inspired and decorated my future.

I’m Stephen W Waweru from Dance4Life Kenya.My dad died six years ago,as a result of Aids and my mother died in December last year with the same disease,after a long term of illness and suffering.But the result of my father’s death was a mystery to my siblings and i,until last year when my mother got ill and tested positive.Watching my both parents dying was the most painful experience in my life,and mostly because of the fact that they died of Aids.How were they infected? Is it because they had no knowledge about the disease?Those are the questions I still ask myself till today. We have experienced a lot of challenges with my family,rejections and even abused,but mostly the agony and suffering my parents went through till the last day,and i would never want to see anyone go through that,or another soul lost because of Hiv and Aids.Maybe my parents were ignorant or dint get a person to tell them facts about Hiv and Aids, but personally I will use every minute I have,to tell out the truth to every person I get a chance to.I wonder how many people out there; don’t have the facts or any knowledge about this dangerous disease, especially the youths. I have dedicated my life to fight Hiv and Aids and use every platform I get to tell the world my story,and hope to save that one soul.I have a lot to talk about,but to all my fellow youths out there,Hiv and Aids is real.We are the ones to decide if this disease will end with our generation,and yes we can if we just decide to.Let’s come together and put an End!Hiv and Aids we can beat if we just take responsibility.
