Form a Team
Are your friends and family looking for a way to make a difference? Do your coworkers talk about doing good, but don't know how? Help the people you love to make a difference by starting a team.
Team fundraising is one of the best ways to make a difference. When groups come together and rally around our movement, there's no limit to the funds they can raise and the change they can impact.
Form your team today and raise funds together, walk as a group, and spend a day doing good. Your hard work helps local HIV and AIDS service organizations provide lifesaving care to people in need.
What is a team?
Teams are a fun way to participate in AIDS Walk Atlanta with the people you love. Gather your friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors to multiply your fundraising resources and help benefit this vital cause.
Many teams walk to commemorate lost loved ones. Dedicate your team to someone you love, and walk to remember.
You can also represent your company, school, church, or organization to rally donations and boost goodwill.
Teams can range in size from two to more than one hundred walkers. On-event rewards are given to the largest group and the top fundraising team.
