16th Anniversary AIDS Walk South Dallas

The 5K walk kicks off Saturday, March 21, 2026 at 8:00AM . This year's theme "We All Matter" extends the mission which is to inspire, educate and galvanize the community of South Dallas and surrounding areas to continue to curb the spread of HIV/AIDS and assist those impacted.

Our host is the historical Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center located at 2922 Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. The 5K walk’s route will begin at the MLK Center continuing through other historical areas of South Dallas and winding back to the MLK Center. Registration begins at 8:00 AM and the walk starts at 10:00 AM. Live music, entertainment and fun activities courtesy of community partners will headline the opening ceremonies.

Funds raised will support the programs and services of AWSD, Inc. whose mission is to empower persons living with and affected by HIV/AIDS, through prevention, advocacy, harm reduction, education, peer support, linkage to care and emergency financial assistance.
