Once again I will be walking with my team, the HEARTLAND MEN"S CHORUS, in the 36th Annual AIDS WALK Kansas City on April 27th, 2024.

Four years ago the HEARTLAND MEN"S CHORUS purchased 16 AIDS WALK banners to honor those chorus members who died of AIDS. We walk to honor those 16 chorus members and also to support those among us living with HIV. I'll be carrying the banner for my friend, Robert Busby, who died 31 years ago on my birthday.

I'm thankful that people are living with HIV as a chronic disease. But there is still education, testing, and patient care that is very much needed.

I sincerely thank you for your support, as do the people who will benefit from the services provided by the AIDS Service Foundation.

All of the money raised stays in Kansas City and will be split between the following 4 organizations:

1. Thrive Health Connection (formerly GSP) thrivehealthkc.org

2. Save Inc. saveinckc.org

3. Hope Care Center hopecarecenter.org

4. The Kansas City Care Health Clinic kccareclinic.org

Thank you for your support of the HEARTLAND MEN'S CHORUS AIDS WALK Team!
