Aids Fund
Until It's Over...
AIDS Fund supports HIV/AIDS education,
prevention and services in the
Delaware Valley Region by raising dollars
and increasing public awareness about the impact of HIV on our communities. Since
its founding, AIDS Fund has remained
committed to the philosophy that by coming
together, each individual can make a
difference in the fight against HIV/AIDS
in his or her community. The generosity
of Drexel University employees through
the Dragon Drive provides funding for
HIV/AIDS public awareness, prevention
and care services in our community.
