Global Infectious Diseases



"Empowering the youths with the right information about HIV/AIDS can be extremely helpful in stopping the spread of this deadly disease ", former United states President Bill Clinton.

All of us must come together because we share the same belief that ignorance about AIDS/HIV is wrong, and that we must all do our share to end it. We have before us an Agenda for Action; let us "work togetherto provide the tools of opportunity so that every youth and child can look with confidence toward the future. That should be our promise to our children for the next century." Bill Clinton.

Dear Class of Gaborone,
We were very happy to see the pictures of all of you and the bears that we sent you. We are currently working on posting those pictures and some of our pictures on our blog. Also,we are wondering where the bears have been recently and what they have been doing! We are thinking about raising money to send mosquito nets over to Africa to try to prevent cases of Malaria in your part of the world. We were wondering if there was anything that you could possibly send over to us so that we can raise the money for your mosquito nets. Those might include jewelry, interesting beads, or fun crafts that have been made in Africa. We want thing that are unique to the African culture or to your school itself. Thank you very much!
Sincerly,
Anne, Sarah, Mari, and the rest of the Dawson Seventh Grade
