Winter AIDS Walk
The Winter Walk for AIDS is a three-mile walk through the beautiful streets of downtown Greensboro that raises both needed funds and awareness.

The Walk promises to be a powerful and moving experience as we remember those lost to AIDS and look to a future when HIV/AIDS is defeated.
