🌟 32nd Annual AIDS Walk – Honoring the Journey 🌟
It’s that time of year again for one of our community’s longest-standing traditions: AIDS Walk!
This year we’re honored to have Gilead as our Presenting Sponsor as we come together under the theme Honoring the Journey.
For nearly 45 years, the HIV/AIDS journey has been one of loss, resilience, progress, and hope. On Saturday, October 11th, we’ll gather as a community to remember, reflect, and celebrate. This event is open to everyone – all are welcome.
