AIDS Walk

This weekend, I participated with several other TFA friends in AIDS Walk Houston. We raised over $2800 for the event and got to walk with Houston Mayor Bill White!

Some interesting facts that I learned Sunday:
  • AIDS Walk Houston expects to raise $1million this year
  • Only 28 states have laws criminalizing the intentional transmission of AIDS--Texas is not one of them.
  • 43% of all Texans living with HIV live in Harris County (county seat--Houston)
Lots of fun, and a great cause.
