| Show your support for Hudson Valley residents with HIV.
While ARCS
programs are partially supported by federal and state grants, we rely
on donations from individuals, foundations, corporations and local businesses,
and funding from special events. Financial and in-kind private donations and grants are vital in meeting our clients constantly changing needs and prevent further spread of HIV/AIDS.
ARCS is registered under the legal name of Mid-Hudson Valley AIDS Task Force,
Inc. as a 501(c)(3) charitable corporation with the State of New York Office of
Charities Registration. All contributions are deductible to the full
extent of the law.
