The National AIDS Memorial Grove is a 10-acre memorial located in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, dedicated to honoring those who have fought against the ongoing AIDS crisis. It serves as a space for healing, hope, and remembrance, while also inspiring new generations of activists in the fight against stigma and discrimination related to HIV/AIDS. Through initiatives like the AIDS Memorial Quilt and various scholarship programs, the Grove aims to ensure that the stories and lives of those lost to AIDS are not forgotten. Each year, it welcomes around 300,000 visitors and engages numerous volunteers to maintain its grounds and promote awareness about the ongoing impact of HIV/AIDS. Generated from the website
