Mattos Monuments Honors Lives Lost
Today, on National AIDS Awareness Day, we reflect on the lives of those affected by the HIV/AIDS epidemic, honoring the millions of individuals lost and the resilience of those who continue to fight for awareness, education, and compassion. One significant way we remember these lives is through the National AIDS Memorial in San Francisco, a powerful space that offers healing and remembrance for all impacted by the crisis.
The National AIDS Memorial is a place where grief, love, and remembrance converge. Located in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, it has become a vital landmark not only for the city but for the world.
Every brick and boulder laid in this memorial tells a personal story—a tribute to a life lost, but also a testament to the lives that continue to fight for dignity and rights in the face of a still-prevalent epidemic.
