Caption is: Bono, U2 lead singer and co-founder of The ONE Campaign and Product (RED), speaks with Elisa, a woman living in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania who was banished by her family when they discovered she was HIV-positive. The rejection led Elisa to try to take her own life several years ago, but thankfully she then got help from a wonderful local health care facility called PASADA and today she is on AIDS medication and doing very well. She has become a volunteer in her community, working with TB patients, and is engaged to be married. PASADA’s work is funded in part by America, via contributions to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria and PEPFAR.
