The Gift (2008)

Almost every minute of every day, a baby is born with HIV, passed on by their mother during pregnancy, labour or delivery.

This is because only one in five mothers with HIV receive the right medicine and care to prevent passing on the virus to their babies. Without treatment, most of these children will not live to see their second birthday.
Presented by Gwyneth Paltrow with poetry by Simon Armitage, The Gift supports UNICEF UK’s Born Free from HIV campaign which aims to ensure that all mothers with HIV receive this medicine and care.

 

The Gift can be viewed on UNICEF’s Born Free from HIV campaign website at www.thegift.unicef.org.uk.
