From October 1st through October 28th, our community will come together to remember those lost, raise awareness about HIV, and learn how AID Upstate works towards ending HIV in our community. To express our gratitude, Dining with Friends hosts and their guests are invited to The RED Party.  This celebration honors the advances in the fight against HIV and serves to unite and empower our community.

Throughout the 1990s, the annual tradition of Dining with Friends served as both a social gathering and a crucial fundraising event. Today, this event has evolved into an extraordinary occasion dedicated to improving the lives of those living with and affected by HIV and those at risk.

Your support matters because funds raised from this event are pivotal in advancing AID Upstate's mission. Dining with Friends enables supporters of AID Upstate to host fundraising dinners and cocktail hours at their homes or places of their choosing. In return, hosts ask their guests to make a donation to AID Upstate.

Join us at The RED Party for an evening of enlightenment, empowerment, unity, and hope as we strive to create a world where everyone with HIV receives the care, respect, and support they deserve. Together, we can empower people with HIV and those at risk to be healthy and free from stigma.
