African Well Fund observes World AIDS Day with Virtual Candlelight Vigil
In observance of World AIDS day on Dec. 1, the African Well Fund is hosting a virtual candlelight vigil at our site. Please visit us at www.africanwellfund.org to light a candle for those who have suffered from AIDS.
While the AWF’s mission is to provide access to clean water, we recognize the
link between the need for healthy water and fighting the HIV virus. AIDS
patients suffer from weakened immune systems, which makes them more at risk for
contracting water-borne diseases and infections.
The African Well Fund
would like to join the many and varied organizations throughout the world who
are commemorating World AIDS day on Dec. 1st. World AIDS Day celebrates the
progress made against the epidemic as well as focusing on the challenges that
remain, and of course, honoring our fallen brothers and sisters.
Please
consider a donation to the African Well Fund to commemorate World AIDS day. Your
donation can help give the gift of clean water to those battling this disease.
The African Well Fund was formed by a group of U2 fans with the intention to
focus on one achievable goal: providing access to clean water for the people of
Africa. 100% of proceeds from the African Well Fund are donated to our partner
organization Africare’s well building projects. Africare is one of the leading
private, non-profit charitable U.S. organizations assisting Africa. For more
information please visit www.africare.org
