Around the world, there are millions of people affected by HIV and the numbers are not exactly going down. Yet, 1.75 million people with HIV have been treated since 2006 thanks to Project(RED) and The Global Fund.

Have you heard of (RED)? Did you see their adds in GAP and several other companies? Do you know what (RED) is about or for? Have you heard of The Global Fund? Well here's some information on these topics.

(RED) is a simple, powerful business model. If you buy a (RED) product, you have the power to save a life. By buying a (RED) product, you also buy medicine for the people of Africa. You can also sign up for the service, at no cost to you! (Below I will tell you how) A company that supports (RED) will give profits to buy and distribute anti-retroviral medicine to our brothers and sisters dying of aids in Africa. Neat, right?

(RED) has so much to choose from. There are (RED) credit cards, phones, shoes, fashion brands, cards, computers, watches. Not all things from (RED) are actually red, but most are. A few companies that support (RED) are: Converse, Dell, GAP, Motorola, Apple, American Express, Emporio Armani, Hallmark, Windows and even Joss Stone. I have 3 shirts from GAP, and I also ordered a pair of (RED) converse!

For signing up or even buying a (RED) shirt, you supply someone with 2 FULL WEEKS of HIV medication. 2 FULL WEEKS, that's big!

I contributed to (RED) by signing up and also buying 3 shirts. And you know what buying 3 shirts does? It provides 125 single-dose treatments for a mother and her baby, to prevent transmission of HIV from mother to child. You can too!

You can even buy a (RED) shirt at Akbar's! It's not going to contribute to (RED) or the Global Fund, but it still shows your support. What are you going to do? It's your choice! Save a life, or let another person with HIV waste away because they did not receive the proper care and medication.

Register to (RED) and give someone 2 WEEKS? join red or go to www.joinred.com

Registering doesn't cost you a thing, except 2 minutes of your time. Check out the site to learn more about this wonderful business boom and how it is helping people with HIV and the Global Fund. Thank you for taking the time to learn about Project(RED). Hopefully I have INSPI(RED) you to save a life!
