AIDS Walk

Despite 20 degree weather and snow and ice on the ground over a thousand marchers from World Vision took to the streets of Chicago to support International AIDS Day which took place around the world Friday. The route of the march took the marchers through down town Chicago in the early evening hours. As the marchers made their way past the NBC 5 TV studios they found themselves part of the evening news.
