It is estimated that in the Latin American area there were 1,700,000 people living with HIV and AIDS at the end of 2007. Of these, 140,000 were newly infected during 2007. In that same year it is estimated that 63,000 people died of AIDS.

Primarily due to their large populations, the South American countries of Argentina, Brazil and Colombia are home to the biggest epidemics in this region.

Our Angelwish Partners focus on addressing the medical, nutritional, and educational needs of families living with HIV/AIDS.
