ok since I have my own page now.. I am doing this as a last resort.. This is suppose to be a community where we help one another out..I am asking for help. Every year I volunteer my time for the AIDS WALK NY.> It is something near and dear to my heart. I get full credit as a walker so I am looking for donations to help me reach my goal. Some background on this event. Take place Sunday May 16th, 2010 NYC Central Park.
This year will be the 25th anniversary of the walk. While that is a big deal it also saddens me that 25 years later and we are no closer to a cure. We are however living longer with HIV and having more success with new drugs, procedures every year.. The walk is brought to you by The Gay Men's Health Crisis( GMHC). This is one of the biggest organizations in NYC that helps people with HIV, AIDs with everything from food to legal. The company has maybe a few hundred paid workers but thousands of volunteers like myself trying to make a difference.
I realize times are tough and money is tight. I am not asking for much. Whatever you can afford. Though my sponsor page is for $25 or more. Any amount is appreciate. You can paypal me it.( PM me for info) I will then transfer all money to my walker page. Receipts can be given upon request. Thanks.
here is my sponsor page and some info on the walk itself.

What I will be doing for the walk. I sign in walkers and tally up money. I also hand out snacks, drinks and cheer on people crossing the finish line. I spend about 6 hours or more at the event. I also do stuff before hand from phone banks to mailings.
thanks.
