Aids/LifeCycle Director
About AIDS/LifeCycle
AIDS/LifeCycle (ALC) is produced by and benefits San Francisco AIDS Foundation (SFAF) and the Los Angeles LGBT Center (the Center). The event debuted in 1994 as the California AIDS Ride before it was reconfigured to what is known today as AIDS/LifeCycle (ALC), the world’s largest annual HIV/AIDS fundraiser. AIDS/LifeCycle is a fully supported, seven-day, 545-mile bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles that raises important awareness about the ongoing HIV/AIDS epidemic, in addition to funding critical services such as HIV testing and screenings for other sexually transmitted infections, ALC funds HIV care, harm reduction, prevention services including PrEP, and more.
AIDS/LifeCycle happens the first full week in June and averages 2500 Cyclists and 500 volunteers (“Roadies”) participating in the event. Participants are united by a common cause: fighting to end HIV and AIDS. AIDS/LifeCycle raises millions of dollars annually to support San Francisco AIDS Foundation and the HIV-related services of the Los Angeles LGBT Center.
AIDS/LifeCycle Participants represent broad diversity: ages range from 18 to 81, including members of the LGBTQ+ community and allies, as well as participants who are HIV negative or may be living with or affected by HIV. The Ride also boasts over 52% of first-time Cyclists, where nearly all U.S. states/territories are represented at the event, and there is strong international participation, too.
In the seven days it takes the riders to reach Los Angeles, more than 650 people in the United States will contract HIV. More than one million people are currently living with HIV in the U.S., and one in eight people living with HIV nationwide are not aware of their status. Since the California AIDS Ride first began, participants have raised more than $300 million and completed more than 63,000 journeys on bikes from San Francisco to Los Angeles.
A catalyst for change and promoter of HIV/AIDS awareness in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and the communities it passes through, AIDS/LifeCycle is the largest and most successful event of its kind nationally and is celebrated as a life-changing experience by its participants.
San Francisco AIDS Foundation is ALC’s fiscal sponsor. SFAF’s mission is to promote health, wellness, and social justice for communities most impacted by HIV, through sexual health and substance use services, advocacy, and community partnerships.
