Annual AIDS Benefit 2020

11/12/2020

To produce a live, in-person event wasn't possible this year, due to COVID-19 restrictions, so we moved our event online!

Unfortunately, our Annual AIDS Benefit was postponed due to the passing of a pillar in our community. Many of our performers and speakers had been impacted by this loss and wished to postpone.
Stay tuned for our event in the new year.
