2018 AIDS Walk Fundraiser BBQ this Saturday!

ANKORS AIDS walk at Lakeside Park in Nelson BC

Join ANKORS at the 2018 AIDS Walk Barbecue on September 15, 10am – 1pm at Lakeside Park!

The AIDS Walk for Life is ANKORS’ annual fundraiser for our Foundation Fund: money that directly supports people with HIV and Hepatitis C in the Kootenays with life and health expenses. This fund is very important to the communities ANKORS serves, show up and support us!

There are two ways you can contribute: showing up to our barbecue on Saturday, or participating in our online silent auction.

At the barbecue, there will be complimentary food and drinks, Zumba classes, face painting and games for families and children, speeches from esteemed community members, and an opportunity for a contemplative walk around the labyrinth. Everything is by donation!
