Annie Lennox - Sing
A voice for HIV/AIDS women and children
Several years ago I personally witnessed Nelson Mandela, standing in front of his former prison cell on Robben Island, addressing the world's press. His message was that the pandemic of HIV/AIDS in africa was in fact, a genocide. Since that time I resolved to do as much as I can to bring attention to the HIV/AIDS crisis.

Vrygrond Update
I just wanted to share these latest pictures from Vrygrond, so you can see what tremendous progress they’ve made since it was a building site!!
Annie's performance at the television charity event Spendenmarathon in Germany in November 2008 raised hundreds of thousands of euros for the Vrygrond Community Development Trust , who in conjunction with the Elton John Aids Foundation are using the money to build the Vrygrond community day care centre in Capetown. The centre will provide care and support for those affected by HIV, vulnerable children and caregivers. This is a follow-on project, replicating a model that has already proved to be successful in Nyanga, The Etafeni Trust.
