About Keep a Child Alive
Keep a Child Alive is an urgent response to the AIDS pandemic currently ravaging Africa. With 25 million already dead, the disease continues wiping out whole societies, threatening economic infrastructure and devastating the family structure. Antiretroviral (ARV) treatment has transformed the lives of people with AIDS in the West, returning them to health from illness. But few Africans with AIDS have access to these lifesaving drugs. Keep a Child Alive is dedicated to providing ARV treatment to children and their families with HIV/AIDS in Africa and India by directly engaging the public in the fight against AIDS. Visit keepachildalive.org for more information on projects currently in development and funding.
