GOALS

RAISE FUNDS

Through our events and other fundraising efforts, we've raised over $350,000 to support a spectrum of HIV care and services – from testing and prevention to treatment and counseling – serving thousands of San Diegans.

BUILD AWARENESS

Did you know that it's estimated a new person tests positive for HIV every 18 hours in San Diego County? Although there have been huge strides in HIV prevention and treatment efforts, a great need still exists for testing, counseling, and care.

CELEBRATE IMPACT

The Red Dress Party is like the name suggests – a party – and an opportunity for the community to band together, celebrate and support a great cause. We invite everyone to be brave, let loose, and celebrate impact.
