University of Pittsburgh Saturday on AIDS Walk and Community Day
but fell about $100,000 short of their $200,000 goal. The
Pittsburgh AIDS Task Force celebrated its ninth annual AIDS Walk
and its first annual Community Day with red balloons shaped like
AIDS ribbons. The AIDS Walk is the signature fundraising event of
the year to support PATF's services, according to Phil Parr, the
group's board president. Gina Focareta, communications director
for PATF, blamed the low turnout on Saturday's bad weather.
