#SaveHIVFunding Campaign: World AIDS Day Toolkit

Since September, the Save HIV Funding Campaign has worked to stop proposed cuts that could eliminate HIV prevention services and devastate access to care and treatment by creating a visual advocacy installation, the #CutsKill Quilt, inspired by the AIDS Memorial Quilt. The #CutsKill Quilt and its individual panels developed by advocates and communities across the nation highlights the potential consequences of cuts to federal HIV funding. The first display of the #CutsKill Quilt took place on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC on September 5, 2025.  

The #CutsKill Quilt continues to be an effective way to engage members of Congress and their offices. In addition to a more traditional request for a meeting, introducing the quilt helps you to ask a Congressional office for a tangible action to engage them on HIV funding. For example, you can ask a Congressional office to display a quilt panel made by you or your community when you request an In-district meeting.
