Please help us raise funding for our materials.
Asking for donations when raising awareness of hepatitis C is a way for the cause to be taken more seriously. A person who donates, even $10, is listening more, cares more and takes you more seriously.
You can have folks send donations

This is the myspace page for the coalition I started that raises awareness about hepatitis C through music, postcards and events. Our coalition members perform at our events and sometimes place our postcards (filled with info about hep c) at their merchandise tables when they perform other shows. Some of them even take the time to distribute them in and around their community. We also have comedians helping us. If you want to join please become our friend and ask for postcards! If you are not an entertainer you can still join our street team and help get the cards out to your community. You can see the full postcard and read all about what we're doing at www.HepCAware.org. Either way please be our friend!
THANKS!

We're already in november. It's the best period to celebrate Thanksgiving but also remember our friends who died too soon. Some of them died suddenly in an accident and some of them suffered by an illness but fighted to the end. I think it's the right time to remember them and keep their fights. So let's spread the words and let's try to change the minds of our society.

Hi Hepatitis C Awareness! Heaven & Earth is on hiatus now as Stuart Smith and Richie Onori have joined forces with bassist Steve Priest to reform "Sweet". For those of you unfamiliar with the band, Sweet originally formed in the early 70s and went on to sell over 40,000,000 albums with 11 International Top Ten Hits such as "Ballroom Blitz", "Little Willy", "Love is Like Oxygen", "Fox on the Run", "Teenage Rampage", "Action", "Blockbuster", "Hellraiser" and many others. This reincarnation of the band reformed last year, playing their first show in June, and went on to play festivals throughout Canada and the States and had played to over 300,000 people before the year was out. During this tour last year they recorded a live CD available on Amazon entitled "Sweet, Live in America" which has received rave reviews - pick up a copy and please Add Sweet As Your Friend On Myspace! http://www.myspace.com/thesweetband Also, check out our friend Red Hot Chili Pepper Chad Smith's new band, Chad Smith's Bombastic Meatbats and their iTunes Top 10 Funk/Jazz debut release, "Meet the Meatbats"! http://www.myspace.com/bombasticmeatbats
