2007/08 Annual Report
Innovation for Humanity
The Global AIDS Challenge
We are at a critical moment in the fight against AIDS.
Much progress has been made over the last five years. Millions of people living with
HIV/AIDS in the developing world are now receiving treatment. Lives are being saved.
Orphans prevented. Hope inspired.
But the need is still so great. While large numbers of people across the globe now have
access to lifesaving care, at AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) we are acutely aware
of the millions yet to be reached. And, it is this knowledge that compels us forward.
AHF is confronting the global AIDS challenge with new ideas and bold solutions.
We are fighting a daunting foe with innovative approaches to healthcare delivery
and advocacy, with unique social enterprises designed to maximize sustainability
and with a global operation dedicated to serving local needs.
In our work, innovation is key. The urgency of the pandemic demands it.
Human lives are depending on it.
Hundreds join AHF in a march
through the streets of Mexico City
to demand ‘Universal AIDS Action
Now’ on August 3, 2008 the opening
day of the XVII International
AIDS Conference.

Our Mission
Letter from the President
Cutting-edge medicine and advocacy,
regardless of the ability to pay.
The long journey to global AIDS control continues to take many twists and turns.
When AHF was formed and treatment was not available, we were limited to helping
people face death with dignity. We hoped for a magic bullet that would cure this
devastating illness in short order, but it didn’t come.
As an expert in the delivery of HIV/AIDS medical care and an influential advocate,
AIDS Healthcare Foundation is on the forefront of efforts to control AIDS globally.
We develop and advocate for effective prevention strategies, work toward the
expansion of HIV testing worldwide and play a major role in the scale-up of
antiretroviral treatment delivery.
Now in our third decade of leadership, AHF is providing treatment, care and support
services in twenty-two countries on five continents. We will continue to marshal our
forces in an effort to stay ahead of the epidemic—measuring our success in infections
Our biggest
enemy is
complacency.
Then the miracle of the “cocktail” became available and AIDS was transformed into
a manageable disease. Unfortunately, hope was confined to a few wealthy countries.
Activists protested and the price of drugs came down. Clinics began to sprout up
across the globe. AHF led the charge, opening some of the first free antiretroviral
treatment clinics in Africa and then expanding to other countries in need. Treatment
gave hope to millions, and the pall of AIDS as a death sentence began to lift.
There are so many reasons to celebrate.
But we are in jeopardy of faltering.
We know what it takes to control AIDS globally. The question is, are we sufficiently
prevented and lives saved.
motivated to make it happen? We know that mass condom education and
distribution is the most successful prevention method. We know that only through
routine testing in all healthcare environments will we find the vast majority of people
with HIV who don’t know they are positive. Likewise, we know that the small down

payment on treatment we have made is only the beginning of the battle.
Our biggest enemy is complacency. We cannot stop to pat ourselves on the back.
The fight against AIDS has only just begun and if we stall now because we lack the
will and discipline to fight the virus to the end, the fault lies with us.

Treatment Centers
In AHF’s ongoing quest to stay ahead of HIV/AIDS, we continue to innovate.
The knowledge and experience we have accumulated in the last twenty years is
saving tens of thousands of lives directly and millions indirectly. From testing

and Miami, Florida to our Center of Excellence in India to the Ithembalabantu

AIDS Healthcare Foundation has been

since the earliest days of the epidemic. The quality, reach and
impact of AHF’s fifteen U.S. healthcare centers have been
highlighted in numerous national publications and broadcast
media including a segment on the ‘Oprah Winfrey Show’
addressing the fight against HIV/AIDS in the U.S.
From the expertise offered by our AHF Pharmacy chain to
disease management programs to HIV testing services offered
out of mobile testing vans, AHF’s programs lead the way in
delivering HIV/AIDS services to diverse populations. Our
groundbreaking HMO, Positive Healthcare Partners, operating
in California and Florida, is the first specialized plan in the
country to serve Medicare beneficiaries living with HIV.
