Until There's A Cure

Twenty Eight years after the first appearance of AIDS, 25 million men, women, and children worldwide have battled this devastating disease and lost. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Foundation extends its energy, resources, and determination to our worldwide community so that compassion, respect, and care are the norm rather than the exception. Until There’s A Cure was one of the first organizations to continually promote the cause by offering a way in which individuals can participate – purchasing and wearing The Bracelet.

The Foundation has made crucial steps in raising funds for a wide range of HIV/AIDS-related projects and agencies. Grant funds are derived from various efforts: The Bracelet sales, sporting events, fund-raising events, personal and corporate financial contributions, and partnerships with other HIV/AIDS organizations. To date, $9,000,000 has been granted to:

Care Services: Social services, medical care providers, hospices, legal services, and food services.

Prevention Education: Interactive programs that teach teens and adults about the dangers of HIV and high-risk behavior.

Vaccine Development: Advocacy for the development of an AIDS vaccine, which offers the best hope for reducing the spread of HIV. Until There's A Cure was the seeding donor to the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative (IAVI).

We dream of the day when the number of new HIV infections is zero. On behalf of those who are HIV positive, we are dedicated to educating all people about the virus and the overwhelming need for love and compassion.
