On April 30, 2025, Atriani was honored to partner with the Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research (CANFAR) at their annual fundraising event, "Can You Do Lunch?" held at the Four Seasons Hotel Toronto. This prestigious luncheon brought together over 400 guests to support CANFAR's mission to end HIV in Canada.
A Day of Elegance and Purpose
The event featured a seasonally-themed lunch in the Aria Ballroom, complemented by a panel discussion with sector experts, individuals living with HIV, and advocates. A highlight of the day was CANFAR's renowned Silent Auction, which plays a crucial role in funding community implementation projects across Canada.
Atriani was proud to contribute to the event's success by creating a VIP lounge that provided a luxurious and comfortable space for distinguished guests. Our team meticulously designed the lounge to reflect the elegance of the event, ensuring a memorable experience for all attendees.
Supporting CANFAR's Bold Actions
Proceeds from "Can You Do Lunch?" support CANFAR's three Bold Actions to end the HIV epidemic in Canada:
- Launching national awareness campaigns to reach underserved communities and connect them to testing, treatment, and care.
- Removing barriers to testing and care for underserved key populations by investing in new testing approaches and more accessible spaces with culturally appropriate supports.
- Funding research by and for members of these key populations to directly address their needs.
With over 50% of Canadians living with HIV now over the age of 50, this year's event highlighted HIV and aging, emphasizing the importance of supporting individuals living with HIV at every stage of life.
Thank you to CANFAR for including Atriani in such a meaningful initiative. We're proud to stand alongside leaders in health and design, creating spaces that inspire and support important causes.
