2011 AIDS Walk

Two beautiful days, no rain, and over 300 walkers gathered on the weekend of September 24-25 in support of AIDS Walk Michigan – Ann Arbor/Jackson. Together, this two-day event raised over $19, 000 for local HIV/AIDS services provided to our community by HARC.

In Jackson, we want to especially thank Gerdau for their generous sponsorship. Thank you to Jackson Coffee and Hinkley Bakery who graciously provided coffee and donuts while the walkers gathered to begin their three-mile walk through historic downtown Jackson.

In Ann Arbor, we were honored to have Debbie Dingell join us for opening remarks and the ribbon-cutting. Morning refreshments were provided by Zingerman’s and Whole Foods. Walkers got pumped up thanks to Noura Bashshur from Vie: Fitness and Spa and her energetic warm-up routine! Walkers returned to hot pizza compliments of HARC and chips from Better Made Snack Foods, cookies from Great Harvest Bread Company and water from Absopure while sitting and mingling with friends, cheering on those crossing the finish line and waiting for the winners to be announced.

Our sincere thanks to volunteer groups from UAID, MCSP, Circle K, and those who individually volunteered. Each person played an important role in making the walk a huge success. Special thanks to HARC photographer, Tim Howley of Howley Photography for spending the day with us and capturing such a fun-filled afternoon!
