Sydney's landmarks join a number around the world to be transformed for the day, including New York's Empire State Building, the Hotel de Ville de Paris in France and the London Eye.
If any of you get photos of the above icons please let me know.

1.  Will you join us in the fight against this incurable disease?  To do so join RFFA (Rotarains For Fighting AIDS) Rotarians Only:

OR
3.  Would you invest in an ORK? (Orphan Rescue Kit)

The organisation RFFA,  (Rotarians for Fighting Aids)  have plenty of other ideas to help the AIDS orphans of Africa, just ask us!

Just remember this;  
AIDS is killing 8,000 humans every day, of which 55% are women .  Three quarters of those women are aged between 15 and 25 years  old .  
They leave behind millions of orphans .  There are almost 20 million Aids orphans in Africa alone . 

Please tell someone who can do something to help.  They do not have to be in Rotary to help!
