5 days ago Bono and Oprah Winfrey painted Chicago (RED), to raise awareness and money to eliminate Aids in Africa.

(RED) was created by Bono and Bobby Shriver, Chairman of DATA to raise awareness and money for The Global Fund by teaming up with the world’s most iconic brands to produce (PRODUCT) ^RED branded products. A percentage of each (PRODUCT) ^RED product sold is given to The Global Fund to help women and children affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa. So far they have given about a total of $10 million to Rwanda and Swaziland.

So come on - Do the (RED) thing! Next time you see a (RED) product, show your support by purchasing it. Let’s change the world… one step at a time.
