Hepatitis C is a viral infection. It can only be transmitted by blood. A person can only become infected with the hepatitis C virus by the blood from an infected person with hepatitis C getting into the blood system of another person who is not infected. The hepatitis C infection can cause inflammation, injury, and scarring of the liver. The virus affects everyone differently. If you, or someone you love, has hepatitis C get the facts.

AIDS Walk 2008

Join Our Team

Saturday, September 6th thousands of people will come together in Denver for the 21st Annual Colorado AIDS Walk. The 5K walk/run will start at beautiful Cheesman Park and will take participants through the historic Capitol Hill area. The support received last year helped more than 30 AIDS service and education providers in Colorado raise vital funds for the fight against HIV and AIDS. This year Hep C Connection is out to help again.

Thirty percent of HIV/AIDS patients are co-infected with Hepatitis C. The AIDS Walk plays an important piece in Hep C Connection’s mission. You can support the mission of the AIDS Walk by walking or running with us or through a financial contribution. Seventy percent of the funds raised by Hep C Connection will go directly to our HIV/hepatitis C Co-Infection program.

How can you join or make a financial contribution? Call Stewart Thomas, Team Leader at (720) 917-3970.

Thank you for your support. We hope to see you there!
