Gala benefits Africa’s Children’s Fund

There’s still time to sign up for Saturday’s eighth annual “Taste of The World,” which raises money for raise funds to support, tutoring, mentoring, affordable housing and HIV/AIDS prevention programs for underserved children and their families in the United States and Africa.

Organized by the board of the Africa’s Children’s Fund, the event starts at 6 p.m. this Saturday at the World Trade Center, 303 Peachtree Street.

Chairs are Kathleen Bertrand and Curtis Hicks, and honorary chairs are Archbishop Desmond Tutu (also the honorary chair of the organization), Dr. Johnnetta B. Cole, Roy Collins and Joe Hindsley.
