Diana's Legacy on AIDS

Even after 20 years, Princess Diana, continues to reach out the less-fortunate people around the world through her organizations and her two sons, Princes William and Harry.

Here is what Bill Clinton said about Princess Diana, back in December 2001 during the “Diana, Princess of Wales Lecture on AIDS. “In 1987, when so many still believed that AIDS could be contracted through casual contact, Princess Diana sat on the sickbed of a man with AIDS and held his hand. She showed the world that people with AIDS deserve no isolation, but compassion and kindness. It helped change world's opinion, and gave hope to people with AIDS.” (Photo courtesy of http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk)
