Please join me in helping end the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Over the past 5 years, I’ve raised more than $15,000 by participating in AIDS/LifeCycle (benefitting the San Francisco AIDS Foundation and Los Angeles LGBT Center) and its 2020 virtual counterpart, TogetheRide, as well as Cycle for the Cause (benefitting The Center in New York City), to help these organizations continue providing critical resources and services in their respective communities.

In 2022, I rode 200 miles in two days and raised more than $3,000 as part of the AIDS Vaccine 200 (AV200) ride, coordinated by Action Cycling Atlanta and benefitting several organizations with a shared mission — to raise awareness and funding for HIV/AIDS vaccine research and prevention in order to one day eradicate the disease.

This year I will embark on the AV200 once again and I invite you to join me in supporting this cause by making a donation. Thank you in advance for your generosity!
