AIDS Walk Africa 2008!

[Maisie11]

Join a group of 45 people on an adventure of a lifetime!

Join the 5th annual AIDS Walk Africa and discover the beauty of the tiny kingdom of Swaziland while bringing hope to children and families affected by HIV/AIDS.

The next AIDS Walk Africa will be held June 30-July 5, 2008. On this five-day jouney, participants will witness the lifesaving programs of the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation and hear from the top doctors and leading scientists in the HIV/AIDS community who are combatting this disease in Africa.

Each walker is required to raise $15,000 to participate, all of which goes directly to the Foundation-funded initiatives.

I'm sick of people labeling Africa as a basket case...its amazing the junk we see on TV which is quick to show how Africa is messed up. All the continents in the world have problems but it seems when it comes to Africa, the continent is treated as a special case. Some guy joked that some people in America thought Africa was a country and Mandela was its president!!

You will be amazed at the development that is taking place across the continent. Africa is blessed with abudant wildlife as can be seen here http://photos.africapoint.net
