World Aids Day...

...is December 1. I'm sorry to say that I'm not doing much to commemorate, but check out this amazing 13 year-old kid, who has helped to raise more than $150,000 to build a school for AIDS orphans in Zambia:

So while he's motivated by his faith, and I'm not particularly religious, I feel somewhat heartened by people like him. He's an ordinary kid who has taken the time and effort to involve thousands of other ordinary kids. Together, they are helping someone other than themselves. Bravo.
