We're in full swing with a huge slate of events, fundraisers and
programs in our war on HIV/AIDS. We know that this year presents a
challenge to many non-profits with the election and a soft-economy. But
the needs of the community are still there and we are working extra hard
to make some significant impact on HIV in Long Beach and the South Bay.
Here is just some of our upcoming events and programs. Click on the

awards to the top fundraisers and the checks to the agencies that
stop HIV/AIDS that you worked hard to raise. Learn exactly how
your funds are going to be used, how they will account for it and
the outcomes they expect from the grant funding.
Cocktails start at 6:30PM (no host) and Dinner is served at
7:00PM.The dinner value alone is $35.00 each and always delicious.

all of the South County area.
