Sending SomeONE To Africa

Hi, ONE members! My name is Taylor and I work in the press office here at ONE headquarters in Washington, D.C. Yesterday I did something I absolutely hate – I went to the doctor and got shots. Why? Because later this week I will be traveling to Africa with President Bush, First Lady Laura Bush and legendary Live Aid and Live 8 organizer Bob Geldof.
Bob and I will be visiting sites in Rwanda and Ghana where US-funded programs are providing life-saving medicine for HIV/AIDS, putting kids in school, creating desperately needed jobs and giving hope to millions of people. These programs are the direct result of YOUR support. When we get to Africa, Bob and I will be sending you reports on what we’re seeing and how your money and support are working to improve the world.
Also, I’d urge all of you to check in here as much as possible over the next week. Ginny, who runs our blog, has asked some very special guests to provide great content during the Africa trip. I know you’ll enjoy it – and I look forward to writing to you again soon. Thanks for your support – keep it up!
