 Your Finest Hour Official Launch
MOBO winner Estelle joined Richard Branson and Kelly Holmes in Johannesburg at the official launch of the campaign in her capacity as an ambassador for YFH.
'This is an amazing opportunity to help young people change the course of
HIV and AIDS. Personally, I am excited to be doing this but scared at the
same time. I know it will change the way I look at life,' comments Estelle.
'I was very pleased to be involved with the launch of YFH. HIV and AIDS is
a massive issue for the whole world, but especially Africa. The Women on
the Move project highlighted some very inspirational women who can make a
difference in educating others and to help make them aware of this epidemic.
I am sure YFH will be successful with the involvement of Virgin and other
businesses,' comments Kelly Holmes.
'YFH brings together the UK business sector and the world of music for the
first time as a unified front to fight HIV and AIDS. For as little as two
pints of beer in the pub, hundreds of young people could be given the chance
to build a brighter future for themselves,' comments Richard Branson.
