We will be celebrating the 25th Anniversary of AIDS Walk Orange County by walking through Disneyland® Park and Disney California Adventure™, and ending at Downtown Disney where booths will be set up in the midst of a Festival of Entertainment.


As an added benefit, walkers with wrist bands will receive a discount if they want to stay after the walk and enjoy Disneyland and/or Disney California Adventure, they will be able to buy discounted tickets (2 tickets per wristband) at the same price for children and adults (valid for the day of the walk, May 1, 2011 only) as follows: 
·         A 1-Day, 1 Park Ticket may be purchased for $63 (normally $76), which entitles one guest to admittance to either Disneyland® Park OR Disney California Adventure™ OR
·         A 1-Day “Park Hopper” Ticket for $71 (normally $101), which entitles one guest to admittance to both Disneyland® Park AND Disney California Adventure™ on the same day.

This is a wonderful opportunity that Disneyland Resort has extended to all of our walkers.

AIDS Walk is Orange County’s largest HIV/AIDS fundraiser organized to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS, and AIDS Services Foundation acts as the primary organizer for the event. We hope to have 10,000 walkers and raise $1 million to continue providing the following services:

·         implement HIV education and prevention programs throughout the community

·         provide food to families and individuals infected and affected by HIV/AIDS

·         promote and institute safe and anonymous HIV testing

·         provide transitional and permanent housing for homeless clients

·         transport families and individuals to and from medical appointments

·         increase the quality of life of people living with HIV/AIDS

Please help us make a difference in the lives of over thousands of men, women and children in Orange County affected by HIV/AIDS. Attached you will find a list of beneficiaries and the timeline/history of AIDS Walk.  To learn more, you can visit www.aidswalkorangecounty.org.
