2021 Desert AIDS Walk
Our community’s largest gathering of HIV advocates comes together on Saturday, October 30, 2021, to walk toward ending the HIV and AIDS epidemics in the Coachella Valley. The 2021 Desert AIDS Walk, presented by Desert Care Network, will be an in-person event beginning at Ruth Hardy Park and following a route through downtown Palm Springs. This family and pet-friendly event includes a Health and Wellness Festival presented by Walgreens.
Dining Out for Life Palm Springs
Dining Out For Life® is an annual fundraising event involving the generous participation of volunteers, corporate sponsors and restaurants. The concept is simple: Restaurants, bars, and coffee shops donate a generous percent of their sales to DAP Health, and we fill participating locations with community members who want to support the mission of ending HIV. Participating is even easier: find a restaurant from the list of participating locations, and on April 28, 2022: Dine Out to End HIV.
