Seattle AIDS Walk Volunteers

Save to Favorites

This year's Seattle AIDS Walk & 5K Run is Saturday, September 27 at Volunteer Park. Join Lifelong and thousands in our community at our annual AIDS Walk & 5K Run as we raise funds and awareness in the local fight against HIV and AIDS. Together, we can reach the finish line and end AIDS in Seattle. Until a cure is found, preventing new HIV infections is the best answer to stopping the spread of the disease. Lifelong offers food, housing and health services because studies show that when these needs are fulfilled, transmission rates are greatly reduced.

You can be a part in the fight against HIV and AIDS in Seattle by volunteering at this year's Seattle AIDS Walk & 5K Run. We would not be able to have the Seattle AIDS Walk without dedicated volunteers whose support is vital to ensuring our participants have a wonderful experience on the big day! We have a variety of opportunities available for volunteers of all skill levels and experience. Sign up to be a volunteer here: https://www.volgistics.com/ex/portal.dll/ap?AP=354482402

The Walk and 5K Run's route takes participants around Volunteer Park, down 12th Avenue E until E John Street. Once participants arrive at E John Street, they will loop back to Volunteer Park to cross the finish line. All volunteers will receive a Seattle AIDS Walk T-Shirt and are invited to attend the After Party in Volunteer Park directly following the Walk & Run for music and fun with other participants.

This year, in lieu of SAW trainings, we will host a volunteer social with refreshments on Thursday, September 25 in Volunteer Park. Volunteers can show up any time between 4pm and 7pm to preview how the park will be set up, socialize with other volunteers and Lifelong staff, pick up their t-shirts and their training materials, and ask any questions they may have.
