The true-life story of how three men-two Kenyans and one American college student-helped save the lives and families of East Africans living with HIV/AIDS.
The true-life story of how three men-two Kenyans and one American college student-helped save the lives and families of East Africans living with HIV/AIDS. Written by the three co-founders of CARE for AIDS-a faith-based non-profit providing social and medical support for adults living with HIV/AIDS in East Africa-Beyond Blood: Hope and Humanity in the Forgotten Fight Against AIDS is the true-life account of how Justin T. Miller, a Vanderbilt undergraduate living a charmed life in America, came to reconsider his whole life's purpose after a mission trip to Kenya, where he met locals Duncan Kimani Kamau and Cornel Onyango Nyaywera. The story begins as the account of Miller's student-led documentary on the HIV/AIDS crisis in East Africa, and quickly evolves into the origin story of grassroots non-profit CARE for AIDS. Although the devastating effects of HIV/AIDS touch the lives of these three men in harrowing ways during the course of Beyond Blood, their message remains inspirational, buoyed by their faith and Miller's belief in the moral imperative of Americans to support disenfranchised communities around the world. Beyond Blood will appeal to readers interested in the social sciences and behind-the-scenes peeks at the inner workings of a philanthropic organization.
