How is the money used?
Generally speaking up to 600.000 Euros of the revenue per year go to national aid projects.
AIDS LIFE preferably supports organizations that provide direct help. Concerning the allocation of money AIDS LIFE also takes foundations that care for the social contacts of people with HIV/ AIDS into consideration, given that they provide the necessary structural requirements. Nationally the AIDS Help Vienna is the by AIDS LIFE most-favored organization.
In Austria there are one or two diagnosed new infections every day. 523 new infections with HIV were stated 2012. In 42.5% of the cases, the infection was acquired heterosexually.

Ice-breaker against social coldness – Social AIDS
Ever since the middle of the 90s the medical treatment and care for people with HIV/ AIDS has made great progress in Austria. For many of the affected the illness still means discrimination, stigmatization and financial adversity.
For this reason Life Ball supports organizations and institutions that fight against the social ignorance within our society and help affected people to find their way back into social and work life.
To date, 12.000 to 15.000 people have been infected with HIV in Austria.
