Maine AIDS Walk is a collaborative partnership
between the Maine AIDS Alliance, Maine HIV/AIDS service providers,
and the National AIDS Fund to raise funds and awareness for HIV/AIDS
in Maine.
During late spring of every year, several communities throughout
Maine host events where people touched by the HIV/AIDS epidemic
can gather to support their efforts in addressing the disease.
'Walkers' solicit funds from friends, family, co-workers and
neighbors to support HIV prevention and care services. A portion
of funds raised through Maine AIDS Walk are matched, dollar for
dollar, by the National AIDS Fund and distributed to community
organizations that are addressing this disease. This unique opportunity
allows individuals to 'double' their contribution in a time of
increased demand for services, but when public funding has not
kept pace.
So, gather your friends & family, classmates & coworkers
and help make a difference in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
AIDS is still a very serious illness in our society. Every 10
minutes another American citizen is infected with HIV. Join this
historic event in an effort to stop the spread of HIV/AIDS and
help deliver vital prevention, education, and care that is needed
throughout our community. Together we can take steps toward a
world without HIV/AIDS.
GET INVOLVED!
