Queen Latifa the Grammy, Emmy, Golden Globe-winning & Oscar-nominated powerhouse will headline the AIDS Healthcare Foundation’s 21st Annual Florida AIDS Walk & Music Festival that takes place in Fort Lauderdale Beach on Saturday, March 21st. Queen Latifah stated, “I am thrilled to continue to lend my voice in the on-going fight against HIV/AIDS. We all must continue to raise our voice & funds to keep awareness & prevention services accessible for all.” Tracy Jones, AHF Southern Bureau Chief concluded, “We are honored to have Queen Latifah join us again & lend her star power to help raise awareness & funds for the fight against HIV/AIDS. Now more than ever, we need to make sure the service organizations tending to our most at-risk populations have the support they need to keep up the fight against HIV & AIDS. While we have made progress since Florida AIDS Walk started over two decades ago, South Florida continues to see disproportionately high incidents of new HIV diagnoses. The money we raise through FAW helps people get educated, get tested, get into care & stay in care – all keys to helping stop the spread, end the HIV epidemic & save lives.” The annual 5k walk & concert has raised millions for local nonprofit HIV/AIDS Service Organizations (ASOs) serving people living with HIV in the South Florida region & is on track to continue this impact again this year. Rinasere the hot new recording artist will kick-off this year’s beachfront event. AIDS Healthcare Foundation’s 21st Annual Florida AIDS Walk & Music Festival is presented by AHF Pharmacy, Fed Ex & Wells Fargo.
