Help Africa's 11 million AIDS orphans - activists

Reuters Health Information:

Leading campaigners in the fight against AIDS urged the United States and Europe on Tuesday to devote more funds to help an estimated 11 million children orphaned in Africa by the disease. "If nothing is done to the AIDS pandemic sooner rather than later, there will be 20 million children orphaned by AIDS in the next 10 years," said Pat Yuri of the Hope for African Children Initiative, a Kenya-based organization helping children orphaned by AIDS.
