Every 14 Seconds...

...A Child is Orphaned by AIDS

AIDS is leaving children all over africa with one or no parents. It is up to us to add some measure of quality to the lives of vulnerable children!

It is estimated that there are 14-15 million AIDS Orphans in the Sub-Saharan Africa. If you were to take every minor (under 18) in Canada, Norway, Sweden, Denmark AND Ireland, you would still have a smaller number then these orphaned AIDS victims in this small area of the world! THESE ARE ONLY THE ORPHANS WITH AIDS. There is an estimated 48 million Orphans in Africa and somewhere between 143 and 210 million worldwide...

8 out of every 10 children in the world who are orphaned as a result of AIDS lives in the Sub-Saharan Africa.
