"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." - James 1:27 (NIV)
Over 12 million children in Africa have lost one or both parents to AIDS. Nearly 7,000 children are orphaned each day.
By 2010, experts predict that 25 million of the world's children will be orphaned because of AIDS.
