AIDS/BREAST CANCER EMERGENCY FUNDS
The AIDS Emergency Fund (AEF) provides short-term emergency financial assistance to San Franciscans battling HIV/AIDS. Since 1982, the AEF has rallied community support to help pay basic living costs such as rent, utility bills and medical expenses for poverty-level San Franciscans with disabling HIV or AIDS. Annually, the AEF helps nearly 2,500 clients.
The Breast Cancer Emergency Fund (BCEF) was founded in 2001, modeled after the AIDS Emergency Fund. The BCEF provides short-term emergency financial assistance to low-income San Franciscans battling breast cancer. The BCEF also makes referrals to agencies that can provide longer-term help with practical and emotional support and other vital services.

STOP AIDS PROJECT
STOP AIDS Project was founded in 1984 by concerned and frightened community members who invited others into their homes to discuss their fears and figure out how to protect each other in the early days of the AIDS epidemic. STOP AIDS Project evolved to provide high-quality, effective, community-based and volunteer-driven services that are rooted in the most cutting-edge theoretical models, informed by both membership in the community it serves and the best scholarship available.
STOP AIDS Project does a lot with a little, using a small staff and many volunteers to provide a broad range of services to members of the community, ranging from informal gatherings designed to boost social support, discussion groups about a hot topic, formal educational workshops, rapid HIV testing, free condom distribution, and opportunities for counseling and referrals to other services available in the city.
