We are thrilled to announce that Richard Dickson, CEO of Gap Inc., will receive The Elizabeth Taylor Commitment to End AIDS Award at the 5th Annual Elizabeth Taylor Ball to End AIDS on September 26, 2024, in Beverly Hills, CA.   Dickson has long supported people affected by HIV and AIDS, especially through his support of the Children Affected by AIDS Foundation. He formerly served on the Board of Directors for the UCLA Mattel Children’s Hospital, and currently serves on the Board of Advisors for The Robert H. Smith School of Business at The University of Maryland.   And as Gap Inc. CEO since August 2023, Dickson leads a $15 billion house of iconic American brands, including Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic and Athleta, which are renowned for doing more than selling clothes. They are purpose-led brands that shape culture and bridge critical gaps in society – from equity and opportunity, to inclusion and sustainability.

The “H” in HIV stands for human. Zero HIV Stigma Day is a movement to unite people, communities, organizations, and entire countries to challenge the impact of stigma, a reality that persists despite advancements in science.  HIV stigma encompasses irrational or negative attitudes, behaviors, and judgments towards those living with or at risk of HIV.
