The F(red)strom wanted to bring (Product) Red to his readers attention. (Product) Red was started by Bono and Bobby Shriver to help raise money for African women and children suffering with HIV or AIDS. Click on picture below to see how it works.
So for every purchase of a (Product) Red item, a certain percentage will be given to this Global Fund. So far over $60 million has been donated.
What kinds of products does this include? Motorola makes phones and Bluetooth headsets.
Dell makes a laptop, desktop, and printer.
Microsoft Windows makes the Vista operating system in (Red).
Converse, of course shoes. You can even design your own.
The Gap makes clothes for men, women, and children. All clothing is made from African cotton.
American Express has a (Red) c(red)it card as well.
Of course The F(RED)strom's favorite is the Apple collection of iPods.
4,400 children die everyday in Subsahara Africa from AIDS. If we are buying certain products then why not make a difference?
Just from the four (PRODUCT) RED items that the F(RED)strom has purchased, they have provided 217 single-dose (nevirapine) treatments for mother and baby, to prevent the transmission of HIV from mother to child.
