38 Years Strong. Still Fighting.
When Joining Hearts™ hosted its first event in 1987, HIV/AIDS was just beginning to be understood—and Atlanta’s response started with us. Nearly four decades later, Atlanta is facing a renewed HIV crisis, with new infections rising at rates we haven’t seen since the ’80s.
While other cities see progress, our work is far from over. Local organizations are on the front lines every day—but they can’t do it without your help.
Joining Hearts™ has raised over $3 million for Atlanta-based HIV/AIDS service organizations—all as a 100% volunteer-led nonprofit.
Your support matters now more than ever. Let’s continue the fight, together.
Events, marked with an * are produced by GAboy Productions, are included in the Weekend Pass, with a portion of ticket sales benefiting Joining Hearts, though they are not officially produced by Joining Hearts.
