AIDS Walk Colorado: Have You Taken The Red Ribbon Challenge?

Many people who attend AIDS Walk Colorado want to make a difference in the fight against AIDS in our community but have never fundraised before, or maybe don’t know how to begin fundraising. The Red Ribbon Challenge is a way for everyone to participate in fundraising efforts by setting a simple goal of raising $100 in one day with a simple 3-step process:

1. Donate $20 to yourself

2. Ask 2 people you know to donate $20 each to your challenge

3. Ask 4 people you know to donate $10 each to your challenge

That’s $100!

What does $100 mean at Colorado AIDS Project?
At $1.35 per meal, $100 provides 74 meals in the Food Bank to a CAP client who is hungry;

It's 9 free HIV tests to help prevent the spread of the disease in our community;
It's peace of mind for someone who won't have to choose between paying the electric bill
or getting their prescription medications for the month.

Remember, when you raise $100, you will receive the official commemorative AIDS Walk Colorado T-Shirt to wear with pride at the event and after, letting everyone you see know that you made a difference in the lives of people living with AIDS in our community.

Reached your $100 goal already? Don’t stop there! The next incentive level is $500
and will entitle you to your choice of a $20 item at the AIDS Walk Colorado Merchandise Shop!
