Just Three Days to Go!
AIDS Walk Los Angeles is this Sunday, and we’re all ready for the big day! This is the premier fundraiser for APLA Health and an important tool for ending AIDS in Los Angeles County where we have experienced the second-largest HIV epidemic in the nation.
We rely on people like you to make that happen, people who have walked with us in the past, who have donated, people who have fought. The HIV epidemic didn’t go away, and neither did you. Thank you.
We can’t wait to see you this Sunday! Keep raising money for your team before the event at aidswalkLA.org and help us reach our goal before the big day.
