do their part in helping the People Living with HIV/AIDS on
international level by participating in (PRODUCT) RED campaign
created by Bono of U2 to help fight against HIV/AIDS in Africa,
but on national level they are also doing their part in helping
the same cause which is very admirable and humbling” |
