Apple adds more RED in support of World AIDS Day

Apple today announced a large number of new apps and products available in the product (RED) category in support of World AIDS Day.


Apple is the world’s largest corporate contributor to the Global Fund for AIDS research with this year marking the 10th anniversary of their support for (RED) in the fight to end AIDS.

“The gift of life is the most important gift that anyone can give,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “Thanks to the vision and dedication of (RED), an AIDS-free generation is within our reach. We want to leave the world better than we found it, and that’s why our longtime partnership with (RED) remains so important to us.

So, for the next week there’s a bunch of popular apps in the App Store offering limited-edition custom (RED) content with all proceeds of the in-app purchases going to the Global Fund.

Additionally, a new iPhone 7 Smart Battery Case, iPhone SE case, Beats Solo3 Wireless headphone and Pill+ portable speaker now come in new (RED) colours.

Beats and Apple have raised almost $120 million of the $360 million raised by the (RED) Global Fund which is pretty staggering.
