Never Give Up Garners Media Attention

Kevin Winge was named Lavender Magazine's 2006 Person of the Year.

Read an interview with Kevin Winge in the Minneapolis Star Tribune on June 19, 2006.

"Equal parts soul-searching memoir, culturally sensitive travelogue, and unabashed call to arms, Kevin Winge's Never Give Up delivers raw, often touching dispatches from a post-9/11 South Africa ravaged by poverty and handcuffed by bureaucratic incompetence, at home and abroad. Ö the author consistently, convincingly brandishes the only weapon that might yet save us: empathy."
- David Schimke, Utne Reader

"This is a very personal appeal for greater awareness and outrage at the extent to which AIDS is scourging poor nations of the world, particularly in Africa, in hopes of provoking action."
- Vanessa Bush, Booklist

"Kevin Winge is to be thanked for investing time, energy and, above all, the integrity that went into Never Give Up. And you will thank yourself for reading it.
- Dwight Hobbes, Insight News

"This book is a must read for all people with a conscience." Mshale newspaper website.
- Swallehe Msuya, Mshale

"While the stories Winge shares contain frightfully difficult subject matter, his tone enfolds the reader, guiding him or her gently from case to case. It nudges aside Western prejudices with a touch so light, it seldom is felt."
- Heidi Fellner, Lavender Magazine

"Winge's power book captures the urgency of this plague that is taking millions of lives."
- E.B. Boatner, Lavender Magazine
