amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research, is bringing all its high profile publicity to Phuket and Koh Rang Noi private island in January 2020. One of the world’s leading non-profit organisations dedicated to supporting HIV/AIDS research, amfAR is well known for attracting A-list stars to its glamourous fundraising events. Past honourees, hosts, performers and guests include the likes of Victoria Beckham, Cher, Tom Ford, Bill Gates, Elton John, Lady Gaga, Julia Roberts and Stevie Wonder to name just a few.
The first amfAR fundraiser in Thailand, amfAR - Thailand 2020, is designed to highlight the foundation’s long-time presence in the Asia-Pacific region. Especially amfAR’s TREAT Asia (Therapeutics Research, Education, and AIDS Training in Asia) programme has seen immense success in its work to ensure that HIV/AIDS treatment is more easily available throughout the region. amfAR- Thailand 2020 is part of a new band of events that will introduce amfAR’s research programmes to a regional audience.
Founded in 1985 as a response to the rapid increase in cases of AIDS and meeting a need for more research, amfAR has invested more than USD500 million in its programmes and awarded more than 3,300 grants to research teams worldwide. The funds have helped research into a number of areas, including treatment and prevention, but today the foundation is focused squarely on the pursuit of a cure for HIV.
amfAR - Thailand 2020 will welcome around 200 guests to Phuket and Koh Rang Noi private island for a welcome party, gala dinner, live auction and entertainment. Guests will be able to learn more about amfAR’s important work in the region, which includes programmes centered on research, pediatric and adolescent HIV, physician training, and advocacy.
