Singer Annie Lennox was honored with the 2009 Woman of Peace award in Berlin at a Nobel Peace Laureate summit. Annie has been involved in raising awareness of HIV/AIDS especially in women and children in South Africa. She gathered 23 female singers to record the song ‘SING’ for her SING organization that has raised $2 million to provide treatment, testing, HIV education and prevention programs in the region. Annie said “I want to express my profound gratitude and deep humility. I honor all the women working around the globe to reduce the effects of this pandemic. This is for them, they truly deserve it.” Congratulations!
