PASO is a community-based organization that has been supporting members of the Texas Panhandle since 1987. We provide financial assistance and emotional support to PLWH (people living with HIV) and their families, and educational opportunities to all residents in the Texas Panhandle.
With a case management system that connects PLWH to doctors, dentists, optometrists, and counselors, PASO also provides financial assistance for medical appointments, transportation to and from medical appointments, housing and utilities, HIV medication, dental care, nutritional food, and more. We even host an annual Children’s Christmas program for our clients who have kids. All these services are available to PLWH in the Texas Panhandle regardless of ability to pay and without stigma or discrimination.
Educational opportunities include in-house HIV programs, and an annual HIV/AIDS Symposium through collaboration with the Amarillo College Center for Continuing Healthcare Education and the South Central AIDS Education and Training Centers. PASO also appears at many of our local health and mental care fairs, as well as community events. PASO also offers educational programs tailored to the needs of your community group.
Funding for PASO comes from state and federal grant funds, private foundations, and local contributions. Every dollar granted or donated stays in the Texas Panhandle! Here are a few examples of what your donation could fund:
