SUNDAY, DEC. 2nd 
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. Born from the grass-roots efforts of two mothers, Barbara Richmond
and the late 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.
