4,400 people die every day of AIDS in Africa. Even though Africa is home to only 10% of the world's population, it currently has 68% of the 33.2 million people currently living with the disease. AIDS is completely preventable and treatable, and only costs 40 cents a day to keep someone infected with HIV alive. The problem is that most African people live on less that $2 a day and cannot afford the medication they need.
That's where we need you! Today, right now, you can harness your power to change the world and go (RED). (RED) is a brand that was created in 2006 by Bono and Bobby Shriver, and it works to eliminate AIDS in Africa. How it works is (RED) partners with companies like Gap, Apple, Hallmark and Armani and then these companies create specific (RED) products from which a portion of the sale goes to fight the AIDS crisis.
And guess what else? This fall SDSU is going (RED)!! Want to help? E-mail me at sdsugoesred@live.com
