Fundraising against AIDS
I have decided to use the occasion of
the UTMB to raise some funds to fight AIDS in Africa, through a
charity called AVERT. There is a serious lack of political and
religious commitment to provide enough funds and resources for
eduction and medical care. Patents on specific medicine leave
millions of people without efficient treatment: 2.3 millions of
inhabitants of Subsaharan Africa died because of AIDS in 2004.
There is still time to reverse the epidemic that is sweeping across
Africa.
It's time to act now !
I've chosen AVERT, a charity contributing to numerous projects
around the world, helping with the problem of HIV/AIDS in countries
where there is a high or increasing rate of infection such as South
Africa or the Russian Federation.
It would be great if you could sponsor me for a fixed amount or
make a pledge per kilometre actually run - this will give me some
more courage to continue.
Thank you !
