For Immediate Release

INGLEWOOD, Calif./EWORLDWIRE/March 9, 2005 --- Entelechy is a non-governmental organization with

offices in the United States and Nigeria. The organization is committed to halting the spread of HIV and AIDS in

Africa. Entelechy's principal mission is to reduce sexual and mother-to-child transmission of HIV among youths

15-25. The organization accomplishes this through localized, educational outreach programs. Thegoal of the

programs is to inform and empower youths about the multitude of physical, social and mental health choices

they must make.

After Observing the HIV/AIDS prevention efforts of other organizations, Entelchy has seen a great need for an

endemic, consistent, multi-faceted presence. Other organizations have attempted to disseminate AIDS

awareness propaganda or distribute prevention and care services. They do not establish a lasting presence

among the people.Their efforts did not assimilate to the particular culture and environment of the populations

they served. These temporary outposts often leave before the villagers and townspeople learn to trust or rely

on their assistance.

Entelechy is extremely knowledgeable about the population they serve and plans to build a lasting presence

throughout Africa. This will provide counseling and educational programs that reach beyond the AIDS

epidemic. The programs will lead young people to develop a broad understanding of their health and well

being. By collaborating with a variety of trusted entities, such as churches, schools, health clinics and

universities, Entelechy Inc. will establish on-going youth centers. At the centers the organization's work wil take

root in the communities it serves.

Young people will be able to attend informational presentations, talk to health care workers and counselors,

obtain referrals for health services, receive guidance counseling for vocational and academic learning. They will

be treated to a myriad of AIDS and STD awareness tools. T-shirts, banners, songs, billboards and slogans

relating to their culture will aid in spreading the message.

Entelechy is aware of the social structures, myths, misinformation, fear and denial that have stood in the way of

AIDS prevention efforts. The organization's aim is toward debunking these social and cultural impediments.

The organization is attempting to accomplish this through a patient and consistent presence in the lives of

young Africans. Entelechy's work will generate profound change in the social mores that historically have

promoted the spread of AIDS. This will enable a drastic increase of the efficiency of the prevention efforts.

Entelechy Inc. is delighted to announce that the Conejo Valley and Camarrillo school districts of California have

donated computers, printers, copiers, film-projectors and more for the African HIV/AIDS awareness projects.

The organization is also seeking donations to refurbish, transport and distribute these materials to secondary

schools and libraries in rural Africa.
