With Mother’s Day right around the corner, Heidi Klum is speaking out about an important cause that effects parents and their children.
The model, 43, has been working closely with the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation for more than 15 years and is spreading the word in hopes that more people get involved.
“I’ve visited many of their events in New York and in Los Angeles,” says Klum. “It’s become bigger and bigger every year and I encourage people learn more about it.”
The foundation was founded by Glaser who contracted HIV in a blood transfusion in 1981 while giving birth to her daughter Ariel. After her daughter passed away, Glaser started the foundation in hopes of raising money for pediatric HIV/AIDS research.
