Normally I wouldn't take to my blog to panhandle for money, but since I can tie this into street art, it is too tempting not to! Shepard Fairey has once again thrown his support behind a worthy cause by raising money and designing shirts for the team that I will be walking for this year in the AIDS Walk New York, the Keith Haring Foundation. For those of you who don't know much about me or my background, I first moved to NYC to work as a HIV Nutrition Specialist, with my first job being at the Bellevue virology clinic. I have participated in the AIDS Walk New York over the last decade, and I would sincerely appreciate any support that people would be willing and able to give me in my efforts to raise money this year. If you are unable to donate money, consider joining the walk and becoming a fundraiser yourself.

Proceeds from the walk benefit GMHC (where I was once an intern) and other tri-state area AIDS service organizations, many of which have been progressively loosing much needed funding over the years.
