Florida AIDS Walk 2012
Sunday May 20, 2012 07:30AM-4:00PM in Fort Lauderdale
Visit www.FloridaAIDSWalk.org to register and walk on a team, as an individual Walker, or as a volunteer!

In 2012, we the Florida AIDS Walk family are setting out to fight and win yet another battle in the war against AIDS, and we want you to join us! Through Florida AIDS Walk, in addition to raising awareness throughout our community of the fact that more than 145,000 of our fellow Floridians are living with HIV/AIDS, we generate financial support through pledges and donations to provide the care and services that they so desperately need. The money we raise stays right herein Florida, and does cool things like buy mobile HIV testing vans, fund free HIV testing, create HIV awareness and prevention education programs, and provide free or low-cost medical care for HIV positive people in need! Want to be a part of the fight? Please join us!

Unlike Florida AIDS Walks of the past, Florida AIDS Walk 2012 is a 5 (not 10) kilometer walk that will take place on Sunday, May 20th, and will start and end at the beach! Whats more, because our Walkers love a good time, we are planning a food and music festival to take place on the beach after the Walk! A whole new event is in store for us: an event that is entertaining and fun enough to be worthy of our Florida AIDS Walk walkers!

Funds raised by Florida AIDS Walk will enable the expansion of free HIV testing and prevention education in Floridas Broward and Miami Dade counties, and provide healthcare and support for HIV-positive individuals throughout the state. With your help, AHF Pharmacy, AIDS Healthcare Foundation, Out of the Closet, and each of our 2011 Florida AIDS Walk Beneficiaries to be announced soon will be empowered to carry out this mission.
