WORLD AIDS DAY
2008-12-17 New Delhi
According to UNAIDS estimates, there are now 33.2 million people living with HIV, including 2.5 million children. During 2007 some 2.5 million people became newly infected with the virus. Around half of all people who become infected with HIV do so before they are 25 and are killed by AIDS before they are 35.
On World AIDS Day, Asian Sahyogi Sanstha India (ASSI) Delhi team organized a Public Awareness Rally in the locality of Vikas Nagar and the slums adjacent to Delhi Cantonment railway station. Students from our three Literacy Centers actively took part in the rally at their respective areas.
Children Literacy Center
The purpose of Children Literacy Center is to provide basic education for the under privileged people in rural areas. These children come from poor family and their parents cannot afford to send them to school. ASSI’s program of alternative school makes it possible for children to enter formal schools and become part of the mainstream education.
