November 2005 Contest
(Contest created by Lynn Hickernell)
December 1 is World AIDS Day. We here at Jarchives want to challenge you in the weeks prior to this event to become experts on HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa and the link this crisis has with clean water.
This month's contest consisted of a quiz of ten questions, the answers to which can all be found on the Blood:Water Mission website. By reading through the information on the website carefully and completely, you would not only be able to answer all these questions,
