Wishes 2010

Dear Friends,

2009 was an important year for me.

Thanks to the trust accorded me by the people engaged in the combat against AIDS and other men and women who believe that a second chance is always possible in every human life, I was given the opportunity to lay the foundation stones for two causes that touch me particularly: first, protecting mothers and children against the HIV virus, and secondly, facilitating access to knowledge and culture to combat social exclusion.

Through the different encounters, the contacts made and the knowledge gained, some first projects have already taken shape, while others will materialize at a later date. This is why 2010 will, once again, be an important year.

This is the wish that I formulate for this year, which I sincerely hope will be fruitful, full of happiness, success, hope and sharing for you.

Carla Bruni-Sarkozy
