The
Colt 45's AIDS TroubleFund
The AIDS TroubleFund provides
emergency and temporary financial assistance to persons on
disability with AIDS who are financially unable to meet
their basic obligations for the necessities of life. Through
payments made directly to the service provider, grants are
made to help with rent and utilities. Our confidential
client list is never shared by anyone outside of the AIDS
TroubleFund Committee and our volunteer Community Advisory
Board. These two committees work cooperatively and
simultaneously twice a month on the first and last Tuesday to distribute our
service grants to people living with AIDS, 12 months a year.
The AIDS TroubleFund is the
"charity of last resort" that PWA's in Houston
have come to rely upon when those agencies that receive
governmental funds have run out of money. ATF is not
assisted living. It is a fund to help PWA's in a time of
need, and to get back on their feet. Due to the dramatic
reduction of AIDS deaths, we maintain the fund to help PWA
with quality of life issues.
The AIDS TroubleFund
addresses the obvious needs of those people living on
disability with AIDS on a very limited amount of money, but
with living expenses that clearly exceed their restricted
budgets. By making payments directly to the service
provider, we can ensure direct client assistance.

In loving memory of a
cherished Colt 45's member and respected Houston community
leader, we support worthy charities and organizations that
are not specifically delegated by our other Funds. Grant
recipients from this Fund are generally AIDS and HIV-related
organizations, but we also support other worthy community
efforts.
Within this fund we are able
to house restricted funds, with which we help with, burial
assistance, food pantry funds, hurricane relief, and other
short term grants to individuals and other charities as
needed.
