The AIDS Foundation of Chicago (AFC)’s Board and staff send our deepest condolences to Marc Loveless’s family and friends. Chicago has lost an unstoppable advocate, champion for the voiceless and fierce fighter for justice. Marc was everywhere, seemingly at once. Just last week, Marc was at AFC’s Annual Meeting cheering us on.
Marc will long be remembered for his incredible legacy of activism on a host of intersecting LGBTQ+ and progressive issues. AFC has partnered with Marc on many advocacy issues, going back to the Illinois African American HIV/AIDS Response Act in 2005 and the first-in-the-nation Quality of Life Illinois lottery scratch-off ticket that raises money for HIV prevention and care services.
