Letter From Our Executive Director

It is a time of great uncertainty in the world. No matter what your situation in life, HIV/AIDS affects all of us in one way or another.

It is a time of great uncertainty in the world. No matter what your situation in life, HIV/AIDS affects all of us in one way or another. But for those facing a debilitating health crisis – such as HIV or AIDS or any unrelated medical issue, everyday can be daunting. Without the often support of many social service organizations such as the Center for AIDS Prevention, case management, and health care providers, or the support of friends and family, many would find themselves alone, rejected and destitute.

With your help the Center for AIDS Prevention (CAP) is able to reach out to thousands of individuals in need of assistance with hundreds of HIV/AIDS and family service organizations that provide an essential social safe haven. This is done in ways unique to many, such as our many but no less important fundraising efforts like direct mail, major and corporate support. Each one is essential and, in ways large and small they compliment each other.

But I must single out the ongoing, generous commitment of our staff and volunteers who worked tirelessly everyday to support the many infected and affected people who in many cases would have no one else to turn to for assistance or direction.

I would also like to thank those of you who are not part of the HIV/AIDS social service community, but who join in either as contributor with your individual support, or who is part of our corporate sponsorship community. You are an essential part and most welcome member of the CAP fundraising family

The Center for AIDS Prevention (CAP) role in the health of our community is clearer than it has ever been. What we accomplish this year will have a meaningful impact on those in need. I hope that you will continue to offer your support or be moved to join us in our quest to make a difference.

Best Wishes,
Steve Neely
Executive Director
