Awareness group holds annual AIDS walk

The Charlottesville AIDS/HIV services group held its seventh annual AIDS walk Saturday. Hundreds of University students and Charlottesville residents turned out to participate in the event, which raised nearly $20,000. The money will be used to support local programs that educate about HIV/AIDS and to help people living with the disease.
