2010 Annual Report - Colorado AIDS Project

Milestone Achieved in the Fight Against HIV & AIDS
A Message From the Executive Director and Board of Directors Chair
Dear Friends and Supporters,
The year 2010 marked a new beginning for all those at risk of or affected by HIV infection. This year the
United States adopted a National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS). The vision of the NHAS captures the spirit of
the work we do here at Colorado AIDS Project (CAP). We are reinspired to fight on to help ”the United
States become a place where new HIV infections are rare and when they do occur, every person, regardless of age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or socio-economic circumstance, will
have unfettered access to high quality, life-extending care, free from stigma and discrimination”.
CAP has a history of being proactive in response to the HIV/AIDS pandemic. As we've learned more about
the disease, we've expanded, we've supported, and we’ve educated others. We've stood together in the
struggle, and always, always offered hope.
As we strive to reach the vision of the NHAS, CAP continues to not only serve those clients who look to us for
answers and resources, but to prevent the spread of infection in the community. It is a time of challenge as
we work to bring quality of life and dignity to those who need it, free from stigma and discrimination, and
reach out to at risk communities with testing and education about their HIV risk.
This challenge is intensified by an increasing client base, decreasing funds, and a misconception that
HIV/AIDS is cured. In spite of this and thanks to you, we are succeeding. Our work is in partnership with you.
Without our donors, our volunteers, our nonprofit partners, our funders and our employees, we could not
meet these challenges or provide the services you will read about in the following pages.
• A record $5,637,717 allocated to supporting services to clients
• Nearly 1,100 free HIV tests provided
• The launch of Red Ball, a brand new CAP signature event to mark World AIDS Day
• Over 121,000 meals provided by the award-winning CAP Food Bank
• An increased attendance of 8,000 participants in the 22nd AIDS Walk Colorado
• 8% increase in number of clients served
Our motivation for being here can be summed up in the words of one of our clients “I got to a point where I
felt that I was a contributing member of society again. I felt like I really had a purpose.”
That is why we are here.
Sincerely,
Ruth Pederson

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 27 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 2,200 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 testing clinics to ensure as many people
as possible are aware of their HIV status.

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
22nd 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 and the first
annual AIDS Walk Colorado Volleyball Tournament,
held in conjunction with CGVA, in addition to live
music, vendors, food and beverages.
On May 23rd, 2010, 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 martini, best
shot and best use of sponsor liquor. Guest judges
from the community tasted and scored each
concoction, while samples were poured for the
crowd.
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. Music, dancing,
giveaways and merriment rounded out the
evening, raising funds for Colorado AIDS Project
as a kickoff to the summer AIDS Walk Colorado
fundraising season.
Red Ball
ANight of Frost and Fire
The inaugural Red Ball, an evening of frost
and fire, added a feeling 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 neverbefore-seen in Denver.
Emceed by 9News entertainment reporter Kirk
Montgomery, Red Ball combined fiery
fashions, frosty hair designs and a sultry after
party with hot DJ grooves and a cool
atmosphere to draw local awareness to World
AIDS Day while raising much-needed funds to
support CAP’s services.
BackTracks is a 70's disco party celebrating the
heyday of butterfly collars, bell bottoms, leisure suits
and afros and is one of CAP's longest-running
fundraisers. A throwback to the emerging gay club
culture of decades past, BackTracks also serves as a
reminder of the early years of the AIDS epidemic.
The event was initially started in 1982 at the original
Tracks nightclub. It became one of the largest and
well-known annual fundraisers for CAP through the
event’s 27-year history.
EXDO Event center played host to the rekindling of
this blast from the past in fall 2009. Food, drink
specials, your favorite dance music of the past four
decades and many more surprises added to a
welcome return of this event.
Community Events
The 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 who
worked tirelessly to raise funds for CAP’s programs
in the 2009 - 2010 fiscal year including:
Charlie’s Denver
Denver Cycle Sluts
Denver Dykes on Bikes
EXDO Event Center
The Imperial Court of the Rocky Mountain Empire
The Krewe of Chaos
Rocky Mountaineers Motorcycle Club
Volunteers
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 in all aspects of
special events are just some of the areas in which
CAP’s volunteers help.
C
IIn 2009, CAP utilized the help of 633 volunteers who
contributed 9,178 hours of service. That amount of
c
hours transltates to $165,571.12 worth of time and
h
effort that went directly to providing client services.
e
CAP is truly grateful to the many dedicated
C
iindividuals and groups who give so generously of their
ttime and talent.

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!
