- Organize community events and large-venue concerts around HIV/AIDS education and promotion of testing and prevention
- Act as spokespersons for the organization in their professions and with the media
- Record and disseminate public service announcements for SAC-AIDS
- Participate in SAC-AIDS events and utilize their high-profile image to destigmatize HIV/AIDS and enable community programs addressing prevention and testing
