Fundraising

Every dollar you raise for Housing Works helps support our relentless advocacy efforts to end the dual crisis of HIV/AIDS and homelessness, and also provides vital resources and services to people living with HIV, empowering them to lead healthy and rewarding lives.

BRAKING AIDS® Ride is an annual epic cycling journey that unites over a hundred individuals traveling on a spectacular route to New York City to raise funds for Housing Works! Riders catch glimpses of early fall foliage, while making memories with team members that last a lifetime.

BRAKING AIDS® Ride 2025 hosted nearly 100 riders, crew members, and volunteers to raise $416,000. This year, community members will join us on October 3-4 for a 2-day ride from Philly to NYC to help raise funds for Housing Works' mission to end AIDS and homelessness.

Register for the Ride and learn about how BRAKING AIDS® is helping end the HIV/AIDS epidemic at BRAKINGAIDSRide.org!

Housing Works is showing up at the TCS New York City Marathon on Sunday, November 1, 2026.

We're recruiting a team of runners to help Housing Works be a healing community that fights for inclusive care, life-changing services, relentless advocacy and social enterprises.

While spots are currently filled up, you can still join the waitlist here.

Housing Works acts as an official charity partner of the United Airlines NYC Half, running with the goal of ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic.

This year, Housing Works recruited a team of 10 runners to take the 13.1-mile journey across New York City and raised $15,000 to support vital HIV prevention and treatment services for New Yorkers in need.

Next year's United Airlines NYC Half will take place March 14, 2027. Stay tuned for more information on how to run with Housing Works.
