Project Report | Dec 29, 2014
Still fundraising

By Jonathan Dudding | Director, International Programmes, ICA:UK

Three months into this campaign and we are still fundraising! Despite the media attention currently being given to the ebola outbreak,more deaths in Africa are due to AIDS than any other disease (World Health Organisation 2012) and even though access to appropriate drugs has improved vastly, the issue of stigma still persists- often based on misunderstanding and yet dividing families and communities. One participant in a recent workshop told of how she was prevented from eating with her family as her uncle believed using the same utensils would pass on the virus.

Please encourage your friends to support this important work.
