The Aliveline is back!

Dear Friends,

This fall is a busy time for Aliveness. As the cold weather sets in, we continue to see increased demand for our services, including The Aliveness Community Kitchen. They are busier than ever, serving 250-300 meals a day!

Over the last few months Aliveness has been expanding, including our housing program, which is why I am excited to announce the launch of new services!

We are so grateful to receive new funding for people living with HIV experiencing homelessness. In October, we were able to launch new programs that will house nearly 100 people a year!

Housing is healthcare and being unhoused is one of our greatest barriers to keeping people healthy, safe, and ending HIV.

Thanks to you, this winter we can provide meals, housing, and support to our community members in need!

All the best,

Matt Toburen

Executive Director

Give to the Max Day

Early giving begins November 1st! We have the knowledge and tools to End HIV in Minnesota, but we need your support.

We hope you'll consider a donation of $5, $50, $250, or more this November to support folks living with HIV and prevent new transmissions!

Our goal this year is to raise $15,000 for essential HIV services here in MN.

Donations like yours make THRIVE, MN’s first free PrEP clinic, possible. We strive to offer above-and-beyond services here at Aliveness, and thanks to you, we can!
