Last year's effort, says Mason County HIV-AIDS Advisory Council spokesperson Merridee Anderson, raised nearly $3,900. "All of the funds we raise at the AIDS Walk are used locally to provide services in Mason County," Anderson said. Anderson urged participation in the AIDS Walk by everyone in- terested in the plight of victims of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immune defi- ciency syndrome (AIDS). Those who want to help can do so by walking the one-mile or three- mile routes on Mountain View, supporting a walker or making an outright donation at the event, which will start and end at the Wal-Mart parking lot in North Shelton. "THERE ARE so many needs," Anderson said in a recent interview. "There are so many things that aren't covered by in- surance or basic health." It was with the various needs of AIDS and HIV sufferers in mind that the advisory council took shape in the first place, she noted.
