Matt Bomer named as honorary chair of the 29th Annual AIDS Walk Wisconsin & 5K Run
Out actor and heartthrob Matt Bomer will serve as honorary chair of the 29th AIDS Walk Wisconsin & 5K Run.
Officials with the AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin made the announcement last night at the organization’s 32nd annual Make a Promise fundraiser, which drew over 900 supporters to the Wisconsin Center.
The 29th Annual AIDS Walk Wisconsin & 5K Run takes place on Oct. 6, at the Summerfest Grounds.
Money raised through AIDS Walk Wisconsin supports ARCW's health care, social services and prevention efforts. A portion of the proceeds are also donated to other selected regional organizations serving people with HIV/AIDS.
Bomer, the award-winning star of The Normal Heart, Magic Mike, American Horror Story: Hotel, and dozens of other feature films and television dramas, is currently appearing on Broadway in a revival of the seminal gay play The Boys in the Band.
He made his directorial debut this year with The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story.
Last year’s honorary chair was television star Jane Lynch.
