Raising awareness of the ongoing global AIDS epidemic, and the means to protect yourself, as well as the barriers to ending the disease are absolutely critical to our work at the Elton John AIDS Foundation, said Furnish.
Pauls deep experience and understanding of messaging and the global media ecosystem at the highest level is a tremendous asset to our Board.
Elton and my fellow board members are delighted he has joined us at such a critical time for the Foundation.
We deeply value both his professional expertise and longtime understanding of, and compassion for, those who are vulnerable and in need of support.
