This is great; thank you! All the royalties of “Get Up Off Your Knees: Preaching the U2 Catalog ” go to TASO, yet I have never seen a photo of the place!

Hey Beth,
I have been a supporter of TASO for years but have only seen the pictures that I have from books about TASO.
The men and women of TASO are TRULY HEROIC and one can understand how much Bono was affected by their determination to “live positively” with HIV/AIDS and their great reservoir of grace and humility.
I hope that you will visit these websites and learn more about the People of TASO. Feel free to contact me regarding the craft items if you would like.
Take good care. Blessings Always.
ALWAYS ONE in the Spirit, debbie

This is so exciting to see!! I visited TASO this past December and actually met that doctor that’s in the picture. Their organization is doing so much great work in Uganda, and it’s all supported through US dollars. Great example of how foreign aid is working in some nations.
