Events

The AIDS Foundation of Chicago was founded 35 years ago with the sole purpose of helping people living with AIDS die with dignity. Now, that same organization is here to help people living with and vulnerable to HIV and chronic conditions live long, healthy lives.

The Gala marks our 35th year of service and will be our premier gathering of AFC supporters. It’s an especially momentous occasion as the gala is now only every five years. Moreover, AFC, the Illinois and Chicago Departments of Public Health and community partners across the state are leading are Getting to Zero Illinois initiative, which will significantly increase the number of individuals connected to care and achieve fewer than 100 new cases of HIV in Illinois by 2030. Join us on this journey as we count down to Zero.
