REAF Donations

The Richmond/Ermet AIDS Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization established to raise funds for AIDS service provider agencies through the production of quality entertainment events. REAF was born from the grass-roots efforts of two mothers, Barbara Richmond and Peggy Ermet, who lost their only sons to AIDS as a way to honor their sons' memories and to help alleviate the suffering of many of the other sons and daughters living with HIV and AIDS. The Foundation has become one of the leading sources of funding for many local AIDS service providers. 100% of our profits are donated to various AIDS agencies including our 2007 beneficiaries. REAF receives no government funding and relies wholly on corporate and individual support. We need your help to cover the cost of our own operations so that we can continue to support the many agencies who provide life-sustaining services to thousands of men, women and children throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. GOAL FOR 2008: $100,000 Please make a donation of any amount to help support REAF!
