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
“The day-to-day business challenges can be all encompassing and we sometimes tend to stay in our silos, working to get our jobs done to the best of our ability. At the Chamber Conference, I quickly learned how easy it is to meet and talk with business leaders I might not otherwise have the opportunity to talk with. I have also gained valuable information and knowledge from the General Sessions and the Workshops. I have learned about business trends and met business leaders who were relocating to Tallahassee.”
