Yes. I have a friend who works for one such organization, Ellipse, Their building has been condemned and at this point they are out "out-of-business", they are hoping to be allowed in to retrieve their records. However I also found out that they are the only service that has been affected. Over all I think that's great news. -Brian Larsen

Ellipse is now back in business. One of their employees had all their records stored on floppies, and they have taken temporary residence with the San Mateo County AIDS Program. Good news to the over 150 AIDS patients they support. --Brian Larsen

Project Open Hand brings meals to home bound PWAs. When it was learned that many seniors were unable to get out for food because of the power outage the delivery system expanded to service this new need. As always materials and money are in short supply, so if you have a favorite AIDS related charity, now would be a good time to give. You will likely help others in need as well!
