HERO Founder

HIV Experience Resources Organization (HERO),  is a non-profit  501(3)(c) organization. HERO was founded by Michael Cavnaugh, former Vice President of Event Presentation at Madison Square Garden, who realized there was not an online resource to navigate a complicated system to get help if you are newly diagnosed with HIV/AIDS.

"Our mission at HERO is to empower individuals affected by HIV/AIDS through three core initiatives:

​

Firstly, we connect individuals worldwide with essential local, national, and international resources upon diagnosis and throughout their journey with HIV/AIDS.

​

Secondly, we amplify the visibility and impact of our esteemed partners, including Broadway Cares, Equity Fights AIDS, The Actors Fund, GMHC, Callen-Lorde Medical, The LGBT Center of New York, Housing Works, The Jed Foundation, Pflag, The Point Foundation, and others, to enhance community support and access to vital services.

​

Thirdly, we advocate for the promotion of safe sex practices through extensive media coverage and engaging with influential figures. We emphasize the significance of sexual health, mental wellness, and overall well-being for individuals living with HIV/AIDS. Together, we strive to create a supportive and informed community dedicated to health, resilience, and empowerment."
