Another year, another few thousand dollars
aproposofnothin says I'm too Eeyoreish in my fundraising. She says "begging for dollars" gives the wrong impression, and that I should talk more about the amounts you all have helped raise to fight AIDS over the past decade.
I don't have the exact figures, but I think together we've accounted for almost $40,000 in fundraising over the past 13 years. That's a lot of meals; a lot of dental care; a lot of educational outreach and research and a lot of lives touched . . . but it's not enough. According to APLA, seven people are infected with HIV every day in Los Angeles, and we need to make that stop.
Again this year, my employer is matching what I raise--so please, if you can, go to my fundraising page and donate. If you want to help and you can't afford the $25 online minimum, please contact me--I'll gladly take checks, cash, PayPal, etc. Or maybe you could pass the link to my fundraising page along to your friends, family, or co-workers. As always, thank you for your time and for your support. I'm just the conduit; you're the ones who make the fundraising happen.
