Rate of Infection

Rate of Infection

Although HIV infection is completely preventable, every 9½ minutes, someone in the US is infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. That person could be you or someone you know and love. That's why it's important for everyone to get educated and get tested.

Please visit www.ALFAHikeForHope.org for details about ALFA’s first annual Hike for Hope!

Hike for Hope is designed to compare in popularity to other cities’ AIDS walks, but we’re taking it off the streets and onto the trail. All funds raised during this event will stay in the ALFA service area of Alexander, Alleghany, Ashe, Burke, Caldwell, Catawba, Lincoln, Watauga and Wilkes counties and will go to supporting ALFA’s mission of care and prevention.

Event Date and Time:

Saturday, April 24, 2010

Event Venue:

Catawba River Greenway – Start / Finish – Catawba Meadows Park – 701 Sanford Dr, Morganton, NC
