Walk with us to END AIDS in Washington. It’s the best finish line ever.

This year the South Sound END AIDS Walk is part of a statewide coalition to END AIDS in Washington State by reducing HIV transmission rates by 50 percent by 2020.

The 2015 South Sound END AIDS Walk is the area’s largest HIV/AIDS fundraising and outreach event and marks the 24th annual AIDS Walk produced by Pierce County AIDS Foundation (PCAF).

This year’s walk, presented by MetMeds Pharmacy and Western Institutional Review Board, will be held on Saturday, September 12. Check in opens at 9am at Cheney Stadium. Before the Walk begins there will be many opportunities for the public to be involved including a resource expo, a community art project, a live band (Seattle-based latin band, Alma y Azu?car), and a free brunch.

Funds raised support PCAF’s local HIV care and prevention services including case management, a nutritional food program, housing, HIV education, HIV testing, and more. All proceeds benefit Pierce, Thurston, and Lewis Counties.
