BENEFITTING AGENCY

Nineteen agencies in the Valley benefit from AIDS Walk Phoenix. One of those agencies is highlighted below. Please note that all agencies benefit equally from all AIDS Walk Phoenix events.

Compassion in Action has been committed to equipping and mobilizing local churches and Christ followers to reach out with the love and compassion of Jesus to care for the needs of people touched by HIV/AIDS since 1993. We have been doing this through three primary programs. First, we offer food boxes each month to support a healthy immune system through good nutritional food. We also offer a monthly dinner and meeting to provide people touched by HIV a safe place to connect and discover how to live a fuller life. Last, we have our Care Program that provides compassionate participant-focused visitation, encouragement, and non-medical support for those affected by HIV. The Care Program links the participant with a trained volunteer who is committed to support and encourage the participant. Activities with the participant may consist of driving to doctor appointments, taking participant to a food bank, visiting with participant in their home, going to movies, dinner or activities together, etc.
