Simple way to take action and make a difference on World Aids Day
Please take one minute of your time today to make a $1 donation to assist those with AIDS worldwide. You can make a phone call or do it online here:

http://46664.tiscali.com/index2.html

In the U.S., call: 866 61 46664

Concert tonight on MTV
Nelson Mandela launched 46664, a worldwide music-led campaign, to raise awareness of HIV/AIDS in Africa and to call on people around the world to encourage their governments to treat AIDS as an international emergency. Mandela's campaign is kicking off with 46664: The Concert in Association with MTV's Staying Alive. Featuring Beyonce, Bono, and Queen, the concert will air on MTV globally today on World AIDS Day, December 1st at 6 p.m. EST. (11 GMT)


Background on 46664
46664 was the prison number of Nelson Mandela on Robben Island, Cape Town where he was held in captivity for 18 years. ...
Mandela's prison number to work as a telephone number and web site in order to create a new way of donating and bringing awareness to Mr. Mandela's appeal. ...
The result was 46664, a global initiative that has brought together the leading music icons of our time to spread the message "Give 1 Minute of Your Life To Stop AIDS".

Please make the call and then post here so this thread gets bounced back up. Surely with the number of people who post at DU, we can come up with a couple hundred dollars to help end the suffering.
