Nine Circles is an active participant in these annual fundraising events:
Spring for Life – In partnership with the Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research (CANFAR)
Spring for life was born in 2003 in recognition of the need for a united, national event to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS among Canadians. On or around the the first week of Spring, beautiful gerbera flowers are sold at Nine Circles. National money goes to CANFAR to support the event and support research, while locally raised money goes to Nine Circles. www.springforlife.ca
AIDS Walk for Life (formerly AIDS Walk Canada) – In partnership with the Canadian AIDS Society (CAS)
During the national event, cities and communities from across the country will host walks to raise funds for local services and programming and to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS.
To date, more than half a million Canadians have participated in the AIDS Walk for Life from coast to coast to coast. Together, these Canadians have raised over $25.8 million to support programs and services for people living with and affected by HIV/AIDS in their communities.
The Winnipeg AIDS Walk for life is run by youth in school. Money raised is allocated to Nine Circles and select HIV agencies. www.aidswalkforlife.ca
