In December, fundraising for Mazzoni Center truly was a drag. Drag entertainer Cherry Pop and her fabulous friends united for the 10th annual Code Red fundraiser, a drag/variety show held at Punchline Philly. It was a fun and powerful night of musical entertainment with a serious message and a vital cause. Code Red benefited Mazzoni Center, along with AIDS Fund, galaei, and Action Wellness, and its proceeds support the HIV-related services provided by each organization. This year’s event raised over $50,000 in total for its beneficiary organizations. Mazzoni Center has partnered with Code Red since it began, receiving over $75,000 in funding for our HIV services.
