There are sounds clips and additional information about the project. All proceeds are going into the rebuilding of the Agape orphanage which burned down in a fire this past Christmas. The Simunye project is an AIDS awareness and fundraising initiative. It was established by young people from the UK and Canada after they returned from
volunteering in South Africa in 2003 and wanted to continue to help the people
that had touched their lives. The project has three main objectives:
- To raise funds and help to directly improve the lives
of children affected by HIV and AIDS. - To raise awareness worldwide, of the AIDS pandemic in
South Africa and the way it impacts the lives of children. - To educate by supporting education initiatives in
South Africa and helping to give children the opportunities that they
deserve.Author: Angel Romero
