For World AIDS Day, Apl.d.Ap of the band Black Eyed Peas has sent the following message to Designers against AIDS:

“From the considerable amount of time I’ve spent in the Philippines – not just to visit my family but also to work on various initiatives through the Apl Foundation – I’ve seen first hand the devastation that the lack of AIDS awareness has had on the global nation. World AIDS Day is a fantastic opportunity for us to get together to promote health consciousness, not just as citizens of the world but as human beings.” – Apl.de.Ap, member of the Black Eyed Peas and founder of the Apl Foundation
