CANFAR ANNUAL REPORT 2019/2020
OUR MISSION HIV is now a preventable infection, yet the number of new cases only continues to climb with an estimated 63,050 people living with HIV in Canada. It’s estimated that six people newly acquire HIV each day - that’s nearly one person affected every four hours.
The Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research (CANFAR) aims to end Canada’s HIV epidemic by leading national strategies to increase prevention, testing and linkage to care and to end HIV stigma. Fueled by fundraising, CANFAR supports research, builds awareness and cultivates partnerships.
