AIDS Walk Los Angeles

  • As of June, 2004 in Los Angeles County alone, there are 54,000 people living with HIV/AIDS.
  • There have been 246 cases of pediatric AIDS in Los Angeles County. Only 42 are still living.
  • In the United States, there are approximately 950,000 people living with HIV/AIDS, with 40,000 new infections annually.
  • 5 million people were newly infected with HIV worldwide in 2003, and 3 million people died that year from AIDS.

On October 16th, I will be walking in AIDS Walk Los Angeles, and I need your help. I set a fundraising goal of $500, but I would love to surpass that. Any little bit you can spare will be greatly appreciated. You can donate by credit card at my donation page (minimum donation there is $25... their rule, not mine), or by check or PayPal if your donation is less than that (or if credit card doesn't work for you).

Just think, with the money spent stopping at Starbucks in the morning or buying that new CD or DVD that just came out, you could help save the life of someone living with HIV/AIDS. You could contribute to research and programs to enrich the quality of life of someone with HIV/AIDS, to educate, and to prevent the spread of HIV.

Any amount is welcome and appreciated. Email me for contact info if you'd like to send a check or use PayPal, or click below to donate by check. THANK YOU for your help!!
