This year CDII (Community Development Initiatives International), a non profit company, will be partnering with Sport 24/7 Lesotho to create awareness about AIDS in South Africa and Lesotho. CDII will hold its third annual 'Sport against HIV and AIDS' event at Zonderwater College Sport Grounds in Cullinan outside Pretoria on Saturday, 29 November. The Event is an open Youth Sports Development Festival involving rugby, soccer and netball for boys and girls of all ages. The main beneficiaries will be AIDS Orphanages in Region 5 of the City of Tshwane (Cullinan, Refilwe, Rayton and Onverwacht) and an AIDS Orphanage in Lesotho. To commemorate the Event, CDII is compiling an inspirational booklet of Goodwill Messages to the Youth of South Africa and Lesotho. Messages have already been received from America, France, Australia, Bangladesh, England, Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago and South Africa. Goodwill Messages have been received from the Chairman and the President of SAFCOC, Kgoshi (King) Mampuru Mampuru III from the Pedi Mamone Traditional Council in Limpopo and from interested people of all ages, including from 7 year old Tristan Rheeder of Despatch in Port Elizabeth. At its World AIDS Day event last year, CDII started a Pledge to support anyone with HIV and AIDS. This year CDII will extend the Pledge which was signed last year by Tshwane's MMC for Sport, Art, Culture and Recreation, by the High Commissioners of Jamaica and of Trinidad and Tobago and by the youth and leadership of communities from Tshwane's Region 5. The Pledge this year will include communities from South Africa and Lesotho. This year CDII and Sport 24/7 Lesotho have joined hands to spread the message that AIDS has no borders.
