AIDS Walk Colorado


AIDS Walk Colorado is the Rocky Mountain Region’s largest and most successful HIV and AIDS fundraiser. This annual event helps increase awareness about HIV/AIDS and raise funds for clients of the Colorado AIDS Project.

On August 15th, 2009, I participated in the 22nd annual 5K march through Denver's Capitol Hill neighborhood. More than 7,000 people from throughout the state came together to raise money for vital services for HIV/AIDS clients of Colorado AIDS Project and more than 30 other outstanding AIDS service organizations. The event served as a day to remember those we have lost to the disease and to celebrate life with a festival, live music, sporting tournaments, food, and beverages.
