AIDS SERVICE FOUNDATION OF GREATER KANSAS CITY

AIDS WALK Kansas City 2008

Ben Thomas's Fundraising Page

Hello!!  Ben here!

Thank you so much for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page. This means a lot to me!  Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure.

Last year you all helped me raise one thousand dollars!!  Isn't that incredible??  This is my second year doing AIDS Walk and I am really honored to be a part of this. 

Living in this time, there is hardly anyone who has not be affected by HIV/AIDS.  I know I've lost many friends and loved ones.  There for a while, those deaths seemed to drop off, and now it has started again with a vengeance.  I just lost my dear friend DeeDee a couple of months ago.  I found out about a friend dying last New Year's night.  My best friend passed away just a few years ago, and it hit him FAST!

It is so sad that we have to do things like AIDS Walk.  AIDS has been with us now at least a quarter of a century.  I wish there was something more I could do, but I am going to walk.  I hope you will sponsor me.  And this site is the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Namasté!
Ben
