Chronicle Staff Report
Among the thousands of people participating in the 10-kilometer walk through Golden Gate Park were more than 700 teams from corporations and community groups, said San Francisco AIDS Foundation spokesman Redge Norton.
"This was an extremely successful event," Norton said. "Regardless of the economy, the community steps forth and says it will not turn its back on people living with HIV and AIDS."
The proceeds will benefit the AIDS Foundation and 35 other AIDS service organizations in five Bay Area counties, Norton said.
