I will be taking part in the Mazda London Triathlon on 1st August 2009 to help UNICEF try to make a difference in the lives of the millions of children worldwide affected by HIV and AIDS.
The money I raise will support UNICEF’s ‘Unite for Children, Unite against AIDS’ campaign, specifically helping the work UNICEF is doing to support orphans and vulnerable children affected by HIV/AIDS.
Almost every minute of every day, a child dies of an AIDS-related illness and four young people are infected with HIV. A staggering 15 million children have been orphaned by AIDS-related causes and many are left to care for younger siblings.
For as little as £14 UNICEF can identify a child who had been orphaned by AIDS and provide him/her with basic health care, proper nutrition, school uniform and supplies, as well as psychosocial support during times of distress.
So please sponsor me now!
