Together we stride!
People impacted by HIV and AIDS have known incredibly painful circumstances before, and we have learned that it takes all of us standing together as a community to get through them. We know that it will require more than just one person or one organization, more than just one day or one event. To thrive despite difficult times, we must all join together to celebrate how far we have come, honor the journey and remember the loved ones we have lost, and above all to rally together in solidarity with our community as a testament to the strength and resilience of all those impacted by HIV.
Festival For Life: AIDS Walk & Run Colorado is Colorado’s oldest HIV and AIDS fundraising event. This event has grown and shifted since it began over thirty years ago as AIDS Walk Colorado, always seeking to meet the evolving needs of people impacted by HIV, their families, and communities. Since its inception, the core mission has not changed: to this day, thousands of people from across Colorado join together as a community to raise money for organizations that provide vital services to people living with or at risk of acquiring HIV. Last year, due to the unique restrictions and challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Festival For Life and 5K Walk & Run was partially held virtually. This year, we are excited to be able to once again offer an in-person Festival For Life experience.
