As always, a focus remains on raising awareness for charitable causes. This year’s charity beneficiary is (RED) – a non-profit organization created by Bono and Bobby Shriver to unite iconic companies and consumer power in the fight against AIDS in Africa. Since its inception in March 2006, sales from (RED) products and events have generated over $190 million for the Global Fund to invest in African AIDS programs. (RED) funds are focused on fighting AIDS through the elimination of mother-to-child transmission of HIV by 2015. Every day 1,000 babies are born with HIV, but by 2105 that number could be virtually zero.
