Award-winning rapper and hip hop artist Lil’ Kim will be the featured headliner at the 33rd annual AIDS Walk Atlanta Music Festival and 5K Run.
Multifaceted singer/songwriter and DJ Durand Bernarr will join to kick off the concert event that follows a 5K run/walk through Midtown on Sept. 28. The concert will take place in The Meadow at Piedmont Park.
AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF), the world’s largest nonprofit HIV/AIDS healthcare organization, hosts AIDS Walk Atlanta Music Festival and 5K Run to raise more than $1 million each year for 13 Atlanta-based HIV/AIDS service organizations.
This is the second time Lil’ Kim has joined AHF to educate audiences about the fight against HIV/AIDS. In 2021, she headlined AHF’s Florida AIDS Walk and Music Festival in Fort Lauderdale.
AWA’s 2024 benefitting organizations include the following:
Center for Black Women’s Wellness
Positive Impact Health Centers
Trans Women Of Color Healing Project
“This annual event offers a time to create a greater awareness of the impact of HIV and AIDS on the local Atlanta community as well as an opportunity to bring together thousands of individuals from across the region to raise critical funds for these 13 worthy organizations,” Dr. Felicia Ivey, AHF Atlanta regional director, said in a press release. “AHF is proud to present this event as one of the many ways that we educate and empower the local community to join the fight against HIV and AIDS.”
