Why Walk? Why Donate?
Please join Health Equity Alliance, the HEAL Client Advisory Board, and the Down East community for our annual AIDS Walk in Ellsworth on June 5th. This date coincides with HIV Long-Term Survivors Awareness Day.
On June 5. 1981, the CDC published the first report about a mysterious illness affecting young gay men. It was AIDS before it had a name. Over forty years later, there’s a sizeable population of women and men living longest with HIV/AIDS who know much about surviving the AIDS pandemic. 25% of 1.2 million people living with HIV in the US are long-term survivors.
For almost 35 years Health Equity Alliance has provided FREE care, support groups, advocacy and prevention services for the Northern Maine community. Your fundraising and donations will go directly to these efforts.
