AIDS Walk Central Park

The AIDS Walk is back in Central Park for 2022!

After two years as a completely virtual event, AIDS Walk is returning to Central Park on Sunday, May 15! This year, participants can either walk in person, run, or join virtually.

AIDS Walk is the largest single-day AIDS fundraiser in the world. For 35 years, AIDS Walk New York has inspired nearly a million people to walk, and millions more to donate to combat HIV/AIDS. The funds raised at the event remain a vital lifeline that sustains prevention, care, and advocacy programs for thousands of people in the tri-state area. GMHC is the primary beneficiary of AIDS Walk New York, with funds also supporting other tri-state HIV/AIDS service, social justice, and/or public health organizations.

We encourage all participants to be vaccinated for COVID-19 and to wear masks when at the AIDS Walk.
