Mission Statement: AIDS Help a non-profit community-based organization, provides case-managed health care, affordable housing and housing assistance, food, counseling, referral and support services for HIV-infected residents of the Florida Keys.
The agency also conducts health education and HIV risk reduction outreach programs aimed at reducing the impact of HIV infection throughout Monroe County, Florida.

Sarah "Sally" Lewis, AIDS Help President
AIDS Help is one of the best known non-profit charitable organizations in the Florida Keys. There are many reasons for this distinction including the fact that every dollars raised within Key West and Monroe County is used to match other funds from grants and foundations, every dollar of which is spent in Monroe County for people living with HIV/AIDS. No administrative dollars or fees are sent out of county, and nearly every penny of client service dollars is spent with health providers here in the Florida Keys.
AIDS Help was incorporated
on February 20, 1986
by a group of concerned citizens
with the primary mission
of helping people living with
AIDS with any issue they had
related to the disease. All of
the incorporators and board of
directors were volunteers who lived in Key West.
