Dear friends, family, and colleagues,

As a person who has benefitted abundantly from the services funded by AIDS Walk San Francisco, I would like to request your support for my 2024 campaign. If you are positioned financially to do so, please consider making a tax-deductible donation. Your contribution will help others gain and maintain access to healthcare, mental health services, housing, workforce development, recovery, legal services, and more.

I am a living testament to the effectiveness of nonprofits funded by AIDS Walk San Francisco. Once a homeless substance abuser with untreated mental illness, HIV, and Hep C, I am now a 4.0 GPA student, volunteer, sponsor, harm reduction educator, and community advocate. I have become an asset, using my voice and platform to help stigmatized and marginalized populations in our beautiful city overcome obstacles and learn to thrive. Miraculous transformations do happen, but they require the support of organizations funded by good people like you.

I will be walking with Team Castro Country Club like I always do, and most of the funds I raise will benefit this essential and life-altering resource for San Francisco's sober communities. Your support will make a real difference, and I would be grateful if you could help me reach my fundraising goal.

Thank you for your consideration and generosity.

Best regards,
Philly
