=AIDS IN AFRICA=

__Description:__ One person dies in Africa from aids every 13 seconds. One person catches hiv every 9 seconds. At the end of 2005 24.5 million people were living with HIV. The life expectancy in many sub-Saharan African countries is now 47. There are many people dying all over Africa. A horrible disease called AIDS is sweeping Africa. AIDS stops you from being able to fight other diseases. This effect leads to many deaths. We have to help save the lives of thousands of AIDS infected Africans.

Scene 1
Will: Aids is very common in Africa. Once you get AIDS in poor places like certain parts of Africa, you could easily die. HIV and AIDS are very hard to stop, because once you get them, they never really go away. Also, the more people we save, the more people will be living with AIDS. Liam: In Africa, one person dies every 13 second. There were more AIDS deaths in 2006 than in any previous year. This scene will be shot in the bleachers.

Scene 2
During this scene a slide show (showing AIDS infected Africans)will be going and music will play. When the music stops, we will start to talk. James: This is a lot more real than it seems. It's very easy to forget. Me: It's so easy to forget about what's going on there. It 's even easier to not care.

Scene 3
Liam: It's pretty easy to find a way to give a little money to an organization for helping AIDS. You probably have a couple dollars lying around you don't need. All you have to do is browse the web and you'll find a site that can get your money out there. Average life expectancy in Sub-Saharan Africa is now 47 years, when it could have been 62 without AIDS. The death count rises, but it can be stopped. Will: It really isn't hard to donate. If you give even a few dollars, your helping someone get the medicine they need.
