world aids day

We've come to another World AIDS Day, and for the first time it's possible to say that the pandemic is finally being confronted in Africa. And that's quite wonderful.

But the attempt to subdue the pandemic is, predictably and appropriately, focused on treatment. This still leaves a vast and continuing human toll: grandmothers desperate for food; orphans desperate to go to school; infected women desperate for the nutritional supplements that will allow the drugs to work on ravaged bodies.

And that's where the Foundation comes in. We remain single-mindedly focused on the grassroots; on helping at community level where people live and die.

That's why we so urgently ask for your continued support, and thank you for all that you have done.

Don't forget The Redemption campaign. We can help. As Mike is fond of saying these days ...

We are the people we are waiting for.
