Travelers will soon have the chance to donate $2 or more to help fight AIDS in developing countries when they buy an airline ticket.
The money will go to the Millennium Foundation. The Geneva-based group is working with the United Nations to fund health goals, including fighting AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria.
