Hello!
I was initially going to use the default message that they encourage
we send to our friends and family, but I thought I'd rather write my
message to those in the livejournal community.
Times are tough--we are all experiencing a bit (or a lot) of the pinch
because of what is happening with our economy. As a result of this,
the State of California has drastically cut funding for HIV/AIDS. In
San Diego County alone, we stand to lose over $1,000,000 of funding
for HIV testing and counseling, early intervention programs and
prevention:

AIDS Walk San Diego helps ensure that people living with HIV/AIDS in
our community receive the services and support they need. I want to be
a part of that effort and that is why I’ll be walking in the 20th
Annual AIDS Walk San Diego on Sunday, September 27!
HIV has impacted many people I know and love. I want to ensure they
continue to receive the services and support they need. I know you
care too. Will you sponsor me today? Thank you for your support!
Please help me support AIDS Walk, so that we can continue to provide
some funding to help those who are in need.

will help.
