PSA from PDA's Pt. 2

This is the part two of the worldwide Public Service Announcement.

A PDA is not your latest cell phone gadget, do-everything besides microwave a hotpocket.

A PDA is a place like Finetown or Kliptown.

A PDA is home to previously disadvantaged people.

A PDA is a Previously Disadvantaged Area.

In the face of extreme poverty and HIV; there is joy, love, wonder and peace in these places.

Stories and photos after the click.



In part one of the worldwide Public Service Announcement we gave you some background on PDA's.

These are places where the young lead the young.

But some of these young people like Thulani are leading the young through organizations like the Kliptown Youth Program.

Kliptown and other PDA's have been hit hard by HIV/AIDS. For some, HIV brings wonder and fear.

But there is hope and joy for those who look for support.

If we had one statement to sum it up.

This is possible because of the love of a mother (which many of us are raised by), the help of a father (which many of us have been left by) or the attention of a new a friend (which could be you).

So the next time you walk by, try looking that way and not the other.

You'd be surprised by the joy YOU may bring.
