Big Bend Cares’ fall event, the Tallahassee AIDS Walk, draws hundreds of participants each year. This year’s event will be held on Thursday, September 21st, 2023, at 6:30pm at the Southwood Nature Trail. We are celebrating the 33rd Annual AIDS Walk this year, working alongside partner organizations Neighborhood Medical Center and Bond Community Health Center.Individual community members, school and university groups, companies, and faith groups can register to walk as individuals or as part of a team beginning July 31st. Walkers are encouraged to also become fundraisers themselves and help us reach our goal. After a memorial walk around the Southwood Nature Trail (starting at the intersection of Ivy Green Trail and Grove Park Dr.), we will gather to listen to speakers and music. This event will be a celebration of all of those who have fought so hard to fight the spread of HIV/AIDS. All proceeds help Big Bend Cares in providing direct-care services for our clients and HIV prevention and education for the entire Big Bend region. Click here for more info.
Why I joined the Chamber
“Tallahassee is flourishing - from new businesses in technology to highly-skilled workforce moving to our city to make an impact in business and in the community. Much of the success and growth experienced in Tallahassee is influenced by the Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce and its amazing members. As a small business owner and an involved member of the Chamber, I have had the opportunity to meet dozens of like-minded entrepreneurs and community leaders sharing their passion to make Tallahassee continue to standout across the US. We are very lucky, and I am very grateful for all that the Chamber does to position our business, professionals and families to flourish.”
