AIDS Walk raises $4.5M

Bay Area Reporter - July 24, 2008

The 22nd annual AIDS Walk San Francisco on July 20 saw 25,000 participants raise just over $4.5 million, slightly under last year's total. Above, Grant Burger, left, and Bruce Jervis, members of St. Francis Lutheran Church, said that they walked in remembrance of Vincent Frila and Brian Christianson. The money raised from the event in Golden Gate Park will go to the San Francisco AIDS Foundation and more than 50 HIV/AIDS organizations in six Bay Area counties.
