Everyday, without realizing it, people put on a mask that they use to hide themselves from reality. They use it to block out what they don’t want to see. This ball is to raise awareness of these masks and to help people to take them off and see the truth. See that everyday there are 12 million children in Africa suffering from AIDS and its effects. In 2006, there were 24.7 million adults and children living with HIV/AIDS. We need to take off our masks of innocence and see the world for what it isÖa place where millions in pain go unnoticedÖand do something about it. The A.F.R.I.C.A. Masquerade Ball promotes the removal of this mask and is raising money to go to the Keep A Child Alive charity, where it will go to meeting the needs of children throughout Africa,
