Do you realize…

…a BILLION people around the world live on less that ONE dollar a day?

…more than 38 million people around the world are infected by HIV/AIDS? 25 million of them are in Africa alone.

…Increasing international assistance by an amount equal to just ONE percent of the U.S. budget will:

• Prevent 10 million children from becoming AIDS orphans
• Help get 104 million children into grade school
• Provide water to almost 900 million people around the globe.
• Save almost 6.5 million children under 5 from preventable deaths
• Build a better, safer world for all.
