Afro-Nets, the African Network for Health Research and Development, recently highlighted Chicago Afrobeat Project’s contributions to Journalists Against AIDS Nigeria (JAAIDS), a non-profit organization that creates innovative communication programs to battle AIDS in Nigeria. According to Omololu Falobi, executive director of JAAIDS, “We deeply appreciate this [donation], particularly coming as it were from a group that maintains close links to Afrobeat and to Fela, whose AIDS-related death did a lot to change the tide in public awareness about HIV and AIDS Nigeria.” View more about the contribution at www.afronets.org.
