Founded in 1987, The Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research (CANFAR) aims to end Canada's HIV epidemic by leading national strategies to increase prevention, testing, treatment and access to care — while simultaneously ending HIV stigma. CANFAR is thrilled to announce table and ticket sales for the 25th Anniversary of Bloor Street Entertains is officially open! This 25-year milestone celebrates the incredible support from the CANFAR family, aiding the fight to stop the HIV epidemic in Canada. This past quarter-century has been marked by tremendous progress in educating the nation about HIV/AIDS, providing linkages to care, and funding research initiatives which have led to remarkable advancements in the scientific & medical fields. Since 2016, Yorkville Village has been a proud venue partner of Bloor Street Entertains and we look forward to supporting the event once again on November 25th, 2021. Here is a look back at past dinners that were hosted at Yorkville Village.
