Friends of the Global Fight Against AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria is an advocacy organization dedicated to sustaining and expanding United States support for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. Founded in 2004 by Edward W. Scott, Adam Waldman and Jack Valenti, Friends of the Global Fight works to educate and mobilize U.S. decision makers to support the Global Fund and the fight to end the worldwide burden of AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria.〔(Friends of the Global Fight website )〕 == History == Friends of the Global Fight was founded in 2004 to help address the problem that millions of people die each year of preventable and treatable diseases. Long-time President of the American Picture Association Jack Valenti, as well as businessmen and philanthropists Edward W. Scott and Adam Waldman, wanted to support the Global Fund in its work to prevent these people from dying prematurely by providing the resources needed to fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. Friends of the Global Fight was created to advocate on behalf of the Global Fund in the U.S. Together, the organizations have helped promote a steady increase in U.S. funding for the Global Fund that has translated into success in fighting these diseases. The President’s Emergency Plan for AID Relief (PEPFAR), first passed in 2003, provides essential funding for the Global Fund’s work. On July 30, 2008, President George W. Bush signed the “Tom Lantos and Henry J. Hyde United States Global Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria Reauthorization Act of 2008” into law, committing $48 billion over four years to the fight against AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria.〔(Will Dunham, Reuters, Washington, 30 July 2008 )〕 Of the total $48 billion, the Act authorized $2 billion to the Global Fund in the first year and “such sums as necessary” in the future.〔(PEPFAR website )〕
