Castro Street Fair Volunteers Needed
Help ALRP collect donations at the gates of this fun arts & crafts fair.
Please join the ALRP staff in collecting donations at the Castro Street Fair on Sunday, October 6! This fun community celebration is turning 40 this year.
ALRP is a proud beneficiary of the fair, so more volunteers + more hours donated = a higher portion of proceeds for ALRP! Feel free to invite family and friends to volunteer with you. Please help ALRP raise money for our low-cost legal services for people living with HIV/AIDS. Plus, all volunteers receive a FREE gift bag from Whole Foods!
Check out photos from the 2012 Castro Street Fair and 2011 Castro Street Fair. Thanks for your help!
