Teen Advocates of Hope Keep Promises on World AIDS Day
Around the world, AIDS has a child's face. Some 15 million children under 17 have lost one or both parents to the disease. In Ethiopia, teenage "advocates of hope" are demonstrating what World AIDS Day really means by participating in Save the Children programs that will prepare them to educate their peers about HIV prevention and provide care and support to those affected by AIDS. We asked them to convey in words and pictures their hopes for themselves and their community.
See their photos, and learn how they're keeping the promise of fighting HIV/AIDS.
