Despite great progress, AIDS is not over.

We still need your financial support. The HIV/AIDS crisis continues to cause tremendous suffering around the world.

  • To date, more than 40 million people have died from AIDS.
  • Globally, 39 million people live with HIV/AIDS, the vast majority in the developing world.
  • Of those, about 29.8 million are receiving antiretroviral therapy.
  • In the US, 1.1 million people live with the disease, with 36,000 more expected to become infected this year.

Why UCSF?

No other research institution can match the breadth and depth of HIV research talent and treatment experience at UCSF. The AIDS Research Institute, with more than 50 constituent programs across the campus and around the world, has changed the course of the disease. Our comprehensive plan encourages innovation and stimulates multidisciplinary collaboration among UCSF scientists focused on one goal: to end AIDS.

Each year, advances made here at UCSF help more and more people living with HIV to rediscover the happy prospect of living longer, healthier lives. Yet, the epidemic continues to ravage people in places where prevention and treatment are simply unavailable.

We all know that inaction is a deadly mistake. The evidence has never been stronger that action against HIV/AIDS brings positive results. Your support ensures that these results will come to fruition. Please consider a gift to the ARI Breakthrough Fund to speed our progress.
