Keep A Child Alive – First in line for an iPhone at Apple Store Soho

Image by Johnny Vulkan
This morning we started lining up for the iPhone – we are first in line at the Soho Store! We’re doing it with our friends at Keep A Child Alive an amazing organization that provides drugs for kids in Africa.
Here’s the press release.
Keep A Child Alive is an organization that gets anti-retroviral treatment to children infected with AIDS in Africa.
Ambassadors include: Alicia Keys, Iman, Liv Tyler and Jessica Alba, among others.
As the highly anticipated iPhone launch approaches, so does the promise of improved communications and connectivity with people around the world. Connectivity is not limited to technology; rather, it’s a fundamental fact that we are “one.”
Supporters of Keep A Child Alive are taking advantage of this opportunity to raise awareness and money. For as little as a day, we can keep a child alive by providing the much needed ARV drugs for those who would otherwise die from AIDS.
Representatives of Keep A Child Alive are first online at Apple’s SoHo store in order to purchase the first iPhone. The coveted device will be auctioned off on eBay by auctionwire and hand delivered to the highest bidder by a Keep A Child Alive ambassador. 100% of the proceeds go to the organization.
