There is something about the proximity of death that helps us discern the important things in life

I met Victoria Huss when I moved to Madison in February of 2004. I've had the distinct pleasure to develop such a wonderful friendship with this beautiful, talented, and compassionate young lady. She has participated in two AIDS Rides here in Madison. She pedaled over 400 miles in the first ride and was on the steering committee for the ACT II AIDS Ride. Mind you, neither task is small by any means. Have you ever hopped on a bicycle and just gone for a 400 mile ride? Have you ever given up your entire summer to see that the others lives are improved by your generosity and kindness?  She too has given me so much in the short time I've known her and done nothing but encourage me to believe in myself and the fight against HIV/AIDS that we both care so very much about. It is such a pleasure to befriend someone who discerns what is truly important in this life. Thank you Victoria from the bottom of my heart for all your love and support and for your commitment to those of us living with HIV/AIDS!

Bob started as a youth HIV/AIDS educator  with peer education programs in Los Angeles shortly after his diagnosis. To broaden his personal message of prevention through education, hope and awareness of the disease, Bob founded the nonprofit HIV/AIDS educational organization, HIVictorious, Inc. in 2005. HIVictorious addresses youth HIV/AIDS education and prevention and provides AIDS awareness in Madison, Wisconsin and throughout the United States through Bob's public speaking and it's AIDS awareness poster contest, "What if it Were You?" Mr. Bowers long-term survivor of HIV/AIDS, and someone who has lost dozen of friends to AIDS, Bob is wholeheartedly committed to educating today's youth and young adults, about the realities of HIV/AIDS as well as living with AIDS long-term. Mr. Bowers is a champion for hope and survival despite some of the difficult circumstances that we ALL face in life.
