Last July, a rag-tag team of Mission Controllers walked 6 miles through Golden Gate park to raise money to fight against AIDS The walk itself was gorgeous as thousands of people hiked the route under overcast skies (no need for sunscreen, right?) The atmosphere was positive and the energy was amazing |

While the Aids Walk is a day of Remembrance and Hope, it is also a day of Celebration. Joe K., Team Captain, brought his mighty (old) boom box and while it had its share of technical difficulties, it finally was able to rally and blast some funky beats which had everyone dancing |

This year, Team Mission Control will be walking again and the team is bigger and more oganized. The Aids Walk is a blast and it’s for a good cause. So get your walking shoes ready, come out and walk with Team Mission Control on Sunday, July 17, 2011. |

| What is the Aids Walk?: | ||
|
In 2011, up to 1000 people here in our little 7×7 peninsula by the Bay will contract the HIV infection. One in five will not know they are HIV-positive for months or years, and will pass the infection along. Consider the math. This really affects anyone and everyone in San Francisco. We would really appreciate your help in making an impact! Please sponsor or join us for AIDS Walk San Francisco. It’s fast, easy, and safe to make a donation online with a credit card, debit card, or PayPal. Your donation goes directly to the SF AIDS Foundation, and gets dispersed as grants to organizations like Larkin Street Youth Services, AIDS Legal Referral Panel, Homeless Youth Alliance, and other direct service organizations for individuals living with HIV. |
