For World AIDS Day I've chosen this photo for Monochrome Monday even though I didn't take it. It was taken by Chris, from church, on one of his visits to Mutende Children's Village in Zambia. As a church we try to help support the village, which is home to a large number of AIDS orphans. As well as financial support, different people choose to go out there to help practically - with anything from building work to playing with the children.
AIDS isn't black and white. It's a complex issue and a horrible disease with many innocent victims.

A significant choice, Liz. I wonder where it is all going to end. If as much effort was put into finding a cure as is put into sustaining armies... well, who knows.
This is an important post Liz.
Also an excellent monochrome.
A thoughtful and important post! With a great photo. Well done!

Wonderful message here, Liz. Love the photo.
Excellent post Liz to highlight the day. The photograph is great.
It is nice to have a personal experience to highlight the day!
This is a beautiful photo. Such a tragedy, though.
