On Saturday, October 21, I’m participating in the annual  Walk & 5K to End HIV benefiting the HIV programs and services of Whitman-Walker Health. I hope that you will support me in my goal of raising $1,000 for this important cause.

I am HIV+ and take a horse pill every morning to stay healthy. Not everyone in my area has the insurance to do that and Whitman Walker has long filled that void in the DC area. Whitman Walker also has staff actively looking for a vaccine and/or cure.

My HIV caused the neuropathy that limits my mobility and makes me have to be a virtual participant. But I still ask for donations every year with the hope it might help someone else get treatment before they get related symptoms, like me. I hope I can count on your support.

 

Thank you.
