Hello everyone, I’ve had to step away for a sec; I’ve been trying to finish up the semester strong.
But anyway, I wanted to jump back into something pressing and something that we all can get involved with. You’ve probably seen the commercials about ‘Raising money for AIDS awareness’ from Sprint. A popular one is one with Kanye West rapping about awareness and then telling about bying a Red Motorola RAZR.
The idea was started by Musician Bono and Bobby Shriver. They have now teamed up with other famous celebrities, who are as well Activists like Oprah, Kanye West and many others.
If you have Sprint, this is a very great phone to upgrade to and it is now at a very affordable price. this is just one example of the ‘Product RED’ line if items. If you are a big online shopper and use American Express, some of your points and rewards will be donated for the Global Fund when you transfer to a ‘RED’ American Express card.
Many other companies will bringing out Product RED items in their upcoming lines like GAP, Ipod, and American Express.
Here are some pictures of the phone and other Product RED items:
