Still Fighting After 30 Years
A Message From the Executive Director and Board of Directors Chair
Dear Friends and Supporters,
Fiscal year 2011 has been a year of excitement and change, as well as a year to remember the beginning of the epidemic.
On June 5, 2011 we observed the 30th anniversary of the first mention of what we now know as HIV infection in the Center for
Disease Control’s weekly publication of public health information and recommendations. So many things have changed
since then, but we are still living with HIV and AIDS and the ramifications of a disease that affects over 15,000 people in
Colorado.
This year has also brought change to Colorado AIDS Project. After a 4 year process, the Board of Directors of CAP voted to
merge with three other Colorado AIDS Services Organizations. On October 1, 2011, the new, statewide Colorado AIDS
Project was formed by the merger of Northern Colorado AIDS Project (NCAP) in Ft. Collins, Southern Colorado AIDS Project
(S-CAP) in Colorado Springs, Western Colorado AIDS Project (WestCAP) in Grand Junction, and what has now become
Denver Colorado AIDS Project (formerly, simply, CAP).
While we continue to evolve to meet the needs of our clients, we are excited to implement the three components of the
National AIDS Strategy here at CAP.
Reducing the number of people who become infected with HIV
Through our testing sites, we have tested 1,634 people this fiscal year, an increase of 19% over last year. We have also added
screening for Hepatitis C as well as other sexually transmitted infections (STI) including gonorrhea and chlamydia. This carries
huge importance because these STIs can be indicators of risky behaviors that increase the likelihood of becoming infected
with HIV. Testing also gives us the opportunity to discuss risk factors and educate those getting tested about choices that will
help keep them safe from HIV infection.
In addition, CAP was approved as the first legal syringe access program in the city and county of Denver this year. As we
know, sharing needles with someone who is infected with HIV is a very risky behavior, and we hope that providing clean
needles and disposing of used needles will reduce the transmission of HIV here in Denver.
We also have researched and will launch a program called Healthy Relationships to reach out to folks with HIV. Through
group discussions and education, we hope to teach various ways to keep these individuals and their partners safe.
Increasing access to care and optimizing health outcomes for people living with HIV
The goal of medical case management is to make sure that our clients are seeing their doctors, getting their labs done
regularly and following their doctors’ medical advice. This year our case managers saw 1,995 clients, a 10% increase over the
prior fiscal year. 396 of these were new to our programs. Through 62,227 contacts, our case managers helped our clients
navigate their way through complex medical and non-medical issues to increase their overall health and well being. With
54% of our clients over the age of 45, one of the health outcomes we have been working on this year is HIV and aging.
Reducing HIV-related health disparities
CAP clients are a diverse bunch that reflects the epidemic here in Colorado. 65% are gay or bisexual. Fifty percent of CAP
clients are caucasian with about 20% African American and 20% Latino. This year we have seen an increase in the number of
foreign born clients and families. Language barriers have lead to health disparities despite our bilingual staff. To help meet
the needs of these and other non-English speakers, we added outside translation services to our bilingual staff. Through
outside translators, our clients from other countries can now tell us their needs in their
own language.
30 years after AIDS became a household word, we’re still fighting.
We fight to provide services to those living with the disease, we fight for fairness
for everyone affected by HIV/AIDS and we fight to curb the spread of the disease.
Until there is an end, we will continue our fight.
Sincerely,
Ruth Pederson
Executive Director
Darrell Vigil
Board President
About Colorado AIDS Project
The mission of Colorado AIDS Project (CAP) is to prevent HIV infection
and improve lives affected by HIV and AIDS.
Colorado AIDS Project (CAP) is a 28 year-old community based organization that helps those living with HIV/AIDS,
and those at risk, to make healthy choices for a self sufficient, enhanced quality of life. CAP provides innovative,
individualized services to those most in need, educates high risk populations, and advocates for social
and health care equity.
CAP empowers those living with or at risk of HIV to live healthier, enhanced lives by providing
two different sets of services.
First, CAP supports over 2,600 clients living with HIV each year, through such support services as case
management, mental health and substance abuse counseling, housing assistance, transportation, food bank,
employment, and financial assistance. Each support service includes the ultimate goals of working with our
clients to make healthy choices, increase their stability and access healthcare for enhanced, healthier lives.
Over the last quarter century, Colorado AIDS Project has served 75 percent of the men, women, and children
who have lived with HIV/AIDS in Colorado.
Secondly, CAP helps people live healthier lives by educating those at risk of HIV, and working with them to
choose safer behaviors so that they can decrease that risk over time. CAP achieves these goals through a
spectrum of education and prevention services, addressing the broad population through media and
community education, and providing more intensive, therapeutically based individual and group programs
for those most likely to become HIV positive.
CAP also provides regular free HIV testing on-site and at an off-site location in conjunction with Denver Health.
In 2011 CAP provided more than 1,500 free HIV tests.

AIDS Walk Colorado is the Rocky Mountain Region’s largest and most
successful HIV and AIDS fundraiser. More than 8,000 people from
throughout the state came together in Denver’s Cheesman Park for
the 24th annual AIDS Walk Colorado, fueled by donations from more
than 13,000 individuals, to raise money for vital services for HIV/AIDS
clients of Colorado AIDS Project and more than 20 other outstanding
AIDS service organizations.
The event served as a day to remember those we have lost to the
disease with prominent speakers, panels of the AIDS Memorial Quilt,
the third annual AIDS Walk Colorado Volleyball Tournament, held in
conjunction with CGVA and the second annual Diva Dash Stiletto
Fun Run, in addition to live music, vendors, food and beverages.
The 2nd annual Red Ball, Igniting Awareness for World AIDS Day,
brought a sense of edginess to Colorado AIDS Project’s canon
of signature events. This ultra-chic event blended high-end local
fashion designers, top-notch and innovative hair stylists and
exquisite makeup artists to produce an alternative and
outrageous runway experience unlie anything else in Denver.
Emceed by CW and Fox31 entertainment reporter Chris
Parente, Red Ball combined fiery fashions, frosty hair designs
and a sultry after party with hot DJ grooves from DJ Rockstar
Aaron and a cool atmosphere to draw local awareness to
World AIDS Day while raising much-needed funds to support
CAP’s services.
Red Ball
ANight of Frost and Fire
On September 11, 2011, bartenders from participating bars across the
city came together under one roof to battle head to head in a
competition to be named the best of the best. Bartenders pulled out all
the stops in a Mixology competition, creating original drink recipes in a
number of different categories including best shot, best cocktail and
best use of sponsor liquor. Attendees were able to visit each bartending
station and sample all of the creations before castin their votes for their
favorites.
Following the Mixology competition, bartenders took to the stage in a
dazzling display of technical mixing mastery in the Flair competition.
Tossing, spinning, juggling, music and choreography added to the
compelling display of extreme bartending.
Presented by
A live auction of various items and gift baskets donate by each
participating bar rounded out the evening, raising funds for Colorado
AIDS Project.
Maybe you’ve seen us pouring beer at Denver Wrangler, cheering
on our favorite lube wrestlers, bowling for a cause or dancing our
way down Colfax for Denver PrideFest.
For Colorado AIDS Project, summer months are filled with fun events
and activities that allow us to be present in the community to raise
awareness for our cause and funds to support our programs.
Our community plays in important role in helping Colorado AIDS
Project provide vital services to clients. Many programs including
The Food Bank, Employment Center and prevention efforts rely on
funds raised through community fundraising events.
CAP is grateful to the community groups and individuals who
worked tirelessly to raise funds for CAP’s programs in the 2010 - 2011
fiscal year including: Charlie’s Denver, Corky Blankenship, Denver
Cycle Sluts, Gayzette, Ginger Sexton, EXDO Event Center, Mondo
Guerra, Nicole Sommers, The Imperial Court of the Rocky Mountain
Empire, X Bar and so many more.
Volunteers are truly an integral part of a successful non-profit
organization. Colorado AIDS Project’s volunteers contribute in all aspects
of the organization. Performing administrative tasks, working the
reception desk, helping clients in the Food Bank, administering HIV tests,
canvassing at festivals, community outreach and helping with special
events are just some of the areas in which CAP’s volunteers help.
In 2010 - 2011, CAP utilized the help of 489 volunteers who contributed
10,567 hours of service. That amount of hours transltates to $190,628.68
worth of time and effort that went directly to providing client services.
CAP is truly grateful to the many dedicated individuals and groups who
give so generously of their time and talent.
Gifts and Contributions
The
he following pages list hundreds of generous individuals, companies and foundations
that have given their dollars, talents and time to make Colorado AIDS Project’s efforts
possible. We are proud to recognize their contributions and their immeasurable belief
in CAP. We have made every effort to ensure accuracy of donor information.

Ways You Can Supprt Colorado AIDS Project
Individual Donations
Whether memorializing a friend or loved one, standing up for a cause you
believe in, acting as a role model for a child or peer, or supporting the
organization that has supported you or a loved one, individual giving is the
number one way that you can support Colorado AIDS Project. Gifts can be
made on-line, or over the phone via credit card, or can be mailed directly to
CAP. In addition to cash support, you can spread awareness for CAP. When you
tell people in your life about your suport of CAP, they are more likely to support
CAP as well.
Support Special Events
When you purchase a ticket to an event such as Red Ball, purchase something
in a silent auction or collect donations in support of AIDS Walk Colorado, your
contributions have a direct impact on CAP’s bottom line. While many
governmantal and private grants are given to support specific programs, funds
raised by special events are completely unrestricted and can be used to support
any of CAP’s programs.
Investment Assets
Gifts of mutual funds, stocks, bonds and mortgage-free real estate can be given
complete or used to create income generating plans. You can circumvent
potential capital gains taxes and receive a charitable gift tax deduction. With a
retained life estate agreement, you continue to enjoy real estate property for
the remainder of your life.
Retirement Plans
You can appoint Colorado AIDS Project as a beneficiary of your retirement plan
or use the plan to create a life income gift. Your estate will avoid the income tax
that would have been due on your plan upon your death.
Income Producing Gift Plans
If you invest in a charitable remainder trust, pooled income fund or charitable
gift annuity, you can make a significant gift to CAP and potentially increase your
annual income, reduce your taxes, and benefit from asset diversification. You
can also avoid capital gains tax if appreciated property is given.
Bequests
Gifts by bequest reassure you that your assets will be used after your lifetime for
charitable purposes. You can declare a specific dollar amount, a percentage,
residual or contingent gift of the remainder of your estate.
Matching Gifts
Corporate Matching Gifts
are an easy and
effective way to
increase the impact
of your gift to
Colorado AIDS Project.
Many employers
will match - even double the charitable
contribution portion
of an employee’s
donation to CAP.
The process is simple.
Complete your employer’s
matching gift form
including your
information and the
amount of your personal
contribution, and mail it
to the Development
Department at CAP.
We’ll do the rest!
In addition to increasing
the impact your gift can
have on CAP, your
company will receive
increased visibility and
recognition within the
community as a
philanthropic organization.
Check with your
company’s Human
Resources department
to find out if your
company offers a
matching gift program.
If it doesn’t, suggest
that a matching gift
program be started!
