Is what was printed on the side of the paper cup holding my morning coffee from Starbucks. It was a testimonial by Joe Cristina, Founder of the Children Affected by AIDS Foundation.
AIDS has orphaned, the quote stated, over 13 million children. It went on to assert that over 600,000 children are infected by AIDS each year. That got me to thinking. And doing the math....
Every day 1,643 children are infected with AIDS
Every hour 69 children are infected with AIDS
Every minute at least ONE child is infected with aids.... (with two children being infected every tenth minute.)
ONE EVERY MINUTE.
Joe Cristina ends his quote with this: "What are you doing to help?"
