Every day, thousands of people around the world wear their FACE AIDS pins as a symbol of solidarity in the fight against AIDS. The How Do You Wear Your Pin? Campaign celebrates the diversity of our movement by providing young people with a platform to share what the pin means to them, their campus, and their community.

Taking part in the campaign is easy! Order pins if you don't already have them, distribute them, and take photos. Be creative — incorporate important landmarks, celebrities, events representative of your campus culture, sports teams, arts, and more. Share your photos by uploading them to your chapter's page on this website.

How Do You Wear Your Pin? began in 2008 at the University of Oregon. In 2009, the University of Virginia took it to the next level, and other schools began to join in. The campaign went nationwide in spring 2010 as FACE AIDS chapters from all over the country submitted photos showing how they wore their pins. Students voted for their favorite photos in different categories, and the winners came from:
