A campus-wide
letter writing campaign concerning Bush's promise of $10 Billion in
additional funding to fight AIDS in the next five years. The goal of
the campaign is to make sure Bush honors his pledge and that at least
half of the aid goes to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis,
and Malaria (
www.globalfundatm.org),
the UN organization that ensures the just distribution of funding to
where it is most needed.

Congress, allocating money to the Global Fund and President Bush's new
AIDS Initiative. Thanks to the more than 500 Yale students and faculty
who were able to support this important first campaign.
