A Special Message From Bono

Sep 23rd, 2010 12:29 PM EST

Bono talks about our campaign to ensure no child is born with HIV by 2015, before singing “Moment of Surrender” on stage in Paris on September 18.

Bono:

“Here’s a thought to leave you with: By 2015, we could live in a world where no kids are born with HIV. The first born AIDS-free generation of our lifetime, by 2015. That’s a thought, right? Every day, 1,000 mothers give birth to a child with HIV. And it doesn’t have to be, so sign up to the ONE Campaign, choose RED, support your First Lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy and the Global Fund. They’re here tonight. This is for them. Thank you, you’re our heroes.”

Well here is the aanswer: All of this started by the U.N, and the G8. Ofcourse there are always scammers that take advantage of good intentions. ■A United Nations General Assembly Special Session on AIDS in June 2001 concluded with a commitment to create such a fund... ■...which the G8 endorsed and helped finance at their meeting in Genoa in July 2001.
