2015 Annual Report The Time is Now

We are now in an era where the end of HIV/AIDS seems within grasp. New medications allow people to live longer, healthy lives and radically reduce risk of transmission to others. We now also have medication that prevents transmission to HIV negative people. Borrowing the theme of 2015 World AIDS Day -‐ Now is the Time. Now is the Time to invest in education, support and access to healthcare to bring an end to HIV/AIDS. It is within our power to make the HIV/AIDS epidemic only a memory.
We face 2016 with a strong start, and renewed hope, as demonstrated by our agency’s new vision statement: Ending stigma and barriers to care for a future free of AIDS
Medical Case Management ALFA’s medical case management program connects HIV positive clients to essential medical services quickly, provides linkage to housing, affordable medications, emergency utilities assistance and a food pantry. All of these services are vital for stabilizing a client and keeping them in care. HIV Testing ALFA offers free and confidential HIV testing in our office daily, and at 29 non-‐traditional testing sites across our service area. Awareness Events With help from countless volunteers, ALFA hosted Not Your Mama’s Bingo, Hike For Hope + 5k, Dining For Friends Finale, Winter Gala, World AIDS Day & Volunteer Recognition Dinner. Community Support ALFA is eternally grateful for the support we receive from Catawba Valley Medical Center, which in 2015 included a new van to transport clients to medical appointments! Legacy Award This year it was with great appreciation that we presented the Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams Legacy Award to Tony and Karen Rose, stalwart supporters of HIV services and ALFA.

Friends of ALFA,
Thanks to the many individuals, businesses and foundations that supported ALFA through donations of time and money, 2015 was a record setting year. ALFA delivered record numbers of services to the community, blasted through fundraising goals, and expanded our financial base with several new grantors. We also were approved to begin Hep-‐C testing, purchased another van for client medical transportation, and we were able to make the part-‐time Medical Case Manager full-‐time. Most exciting, ALFA exceeded all state set goals in regards to client outcomes! Region II, ALFA’s Region of Care, not only scored above state goals, but set the lead for the entire state!
Thank you for your support of ALFA.
Martha Gantt CFO/COO
