NexGen Information Systems announces the launch of The National AIDS Fund's new site. The National AIDS Fund, located in Washington, D.C., worked with NexGen Information Systems to redesign its' public Web site and establish an extranet for its nationwide network of community partners. The system uses the WebDirector content management system and enables staff in 29 states and local funding collaboratives to keep regional information up-to-date.

The National AIDS Fund is one of America’s largest philanthropic organizations dedicated to eliminating HIV/AIDS as a major health and social problem.

The Fund’s primary purpose is channeling critical resources to community-based organizations to fight HIV/AIDS at the local level. Through 29 state and local funding collaboratives – the 29 Community Partnerships – the Fund provides grants and other support to nearly 500 community-based organizations annually, principally for prevention efforts. The National AIDS Fund’s Community Partnerships use the leverage of national grants to raise support locally, and make community-level decisions about how and where funds should be spent. Together with its Community Partnerships, the Fund has raised and invested over $100 million since 1988 for the fight against HIV/AIDS in the United States.
