Elliott Yamin and Fantasia Barrino recently visited Angola to assess the impact of the money raised last year during the Idol Gives Back fundraiser. While they were in Namibe province, a baby born was born, and according to tradition, he was named after an honored visitor. ExxonMobil's Fernando Pegado surprised Elliott Yamin by taking him to visit his Angolan namesake. In this video clip broadcast on FOX's hit series American Idol, Elliott takes the opportunity to give baby Elliott and his mother a bednet funded by ExxonMobil to protect them from malaria.
