Moving Forward AIDS WALK to Create an SAN FRANCISCO HIV-Free Generation July 20, 2014 TM

Thank you to the thousands of men, women, and children; corporate sponsors; employee teams; and volunteers who helped raise more than $2.5 million in last Sunday’s AIDS Walk San Francisco and more than $80 million to date to support the Bay Area’s fight against HIV/AIDS. We also thank the San Francisco AIDS Foundation for its many years of stewardship of the Walk. Project Inform is committed to the following four principles that will guide AIDS Walk San Francisco in 2014 and beyond as the organization assumes leadership of this vital event. • A multi-agency fundraising event. The Walk is organized on behalf of dozens of Bay Area HIV/AIDS service providers. The grants program, which has provided essential support for those agencies for many years, will be restored. • Empowering many voices. The Walk will continue to reflect the full diversity of communities, services and voices necessary to ending the epidemic. • Cost efficiency. The Walk’s cost effectiveness will be improved by expanding and reinvigorating the public’s participation, increasing income, and closely managing expenses. • Solidarity. The Walk will be led by hundreds of HIV-positive people and Bay Area youth, joining together to achieve today’s very real opportunity to create the first HIV-free generation in over three decades.
