The United States Center for Disease Control estimates that there were roughly 56,300 new HIV infections that occurred in the United States during 2006. This translates to approximately 154 new cases of HIV being diagnosed every day in America alone.

This shocking statistic demonstrates the need for HIV/AIDS care and prevention programs in the US. The AIDS Walk initiative helps to raise funds for these programs and supports their efforts to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS.

History of AIDS Walk

AIDS Walk San Diego began in 1989, although for two years prior to this it took place under the name “Walk for Life.” According to the AIDS Walk San Diego website, it is “San Diego’s largest one-day HIV/AIDS fundraiser and the biggest non-governmental financial provider for HIV/AIDS in San Diego County.”
