The BC Persons With AIDS Society & ViiV Healthcare in partnership with Shire Canada present...

ACCOLAIDS 2010

A bi-annual awards gala honouring our heroes in the BC AIDS movement.

This year’s 9th AccolAIDS Awards continues to honour the extraordinary achievements and dedication of organizations, businesses, groups and individuals responding to the AIDS epidemic in British Columbia, and the thousands of people living in BC who are affected.

Join us and host Maestro Bramwell Tovey, Principal Conductor to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, for gourmet cuisine, live entertainment, silent and live auctions on Sunday, April 18th at the stunning, new Vancouver Convention Centre from 6pm -10pm.

Proceeds benefit the vital programs and services provided by the BC Persons With AIDS Society. AccolAIDS is made possible through the generous support of sponsors and donors, and our gratitude for their support is shared by over 4,500 HIV-positive members of the BC Persons With AIDS Society.
