and the stars
So too let us
illuminate one another

| About The Fire Within's Bob Bowers |
HIV positive speaker and AIDS activist Bob Bowers, also known simply as "Da Pirate," has been living with and surviving HIV/AIDS for 27 years. 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?". 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. But ultimately Mr. Bowers is a champion for hope and perseverance despite the difficult circumstances that we ALL must face in life.
"Compassion is our cure" says Bob and we wholeheartedly agree. That is why we are honored to share with the world The Fire Within, a film that documents on day in his incredible life.
