Are YOU one of the “Five hundred” who will Walk for the Africa’s AIDS orphans?
Heart for Africa in Hawaii is proud to announce the 2007 Twilight Walk for Africa. On World AIDS Day, Saturday, December 1, 2007, those with a heart for Africa’s AIDS orphans – the “five hundred” - will gather at one of the most beautiful sites in Hawaii, to walk in a vigil for the innocent victims of the tragic AIDS epidemic. We invite you to take part in a rare chance to walk the magnificent, meandering Ko’olau Golf Course paths at dusk to show loving solidarity with the children – many HIV positive or ill with AIDS - whose parents have died of this devastating disease.
Whether walking with a team or as individuals, we will gather pledges from our friends, family, co-workers, and classmates to raise funds to help expand our partner orphanages in Swaziland and Kenya. We will walk to raise funds for orphanages and raise awareness of the tragic crisis African children face as AIDS robs them of parents, sisters, brothers, and futures. Every orphanage dorm built, every garden planted and every water well dug enables more children to be rescued from the streets and out of the unspeakable abuse and neglect they endure.
Won’t you walk three miles so these children can have HOPE? Will you be one of Hawaii’s “five hundred”? Will you commit to pray for Walk for Africa and for these children? Don’t wait! Form your team, register, and start gathering pledges.
Mahalo for supporting Walk for Africa
