On behalf of all of us at the National AIDS Memorial, thank you for your generous gift.

Your gift sustains our work toward ensuring that the lives of people who died from AIDS are never forgotten and the story of AIDS is known by future generations so that never again will a community be harmed because of fear, discrimination, silence or stigma.

The AIDS Memorial Grove in Golden Gate Park is a place of healing, remembrance, and reflection; a place consecrated in memory of every life touched by AIDS. The AIDS Memorial Quilt, the largest community arts project in the world, is composed of nearly 50,000 hand-made panels that memorialize over 110,000 people who died of AIDS. Our Quilt Display Program brings panels of the Quilt to communities across the world and keeps the stories of AIDS in the forefront of our national conscience.

Together with the AIDS Memorial Grove and the AIDS Memorial Quilt, our engaging programs, including the Surviving Voices - AIDS Story Project, the Pedro Zamora Young Leaders Scholarship, the Mary Bowman Arts in Activism Award, Change the Pattern - Southern U.S. HIV/AIDS Quilt tour, and our annual World AIDS Day National Observance, ensure that all remember the acts of caring, heroism, and kindness, and provide a beacon of hope for future generations.

For more than 30+ years, we remain committed to telling the stories of the AIDS pandemic with dignity, truth, and compassion. Our work is made possible by the generosity and commitment of donors like you. All that we have accomplished together is a profound testament to the unrelenting will of a community to unite and persevere through unimaginable tragedy, exemplifying the transition from hopelessness to hope.

If you have any questions, or if you would like information on planned giving or the National AIDS Memorial Legacy Society, please do not hesitate to contact me at jcunningham@aidsmemorial.org.

Again, thank you for your meaningful support.
