The proposal was simple, and that is that Apple would donate 5 dollars for each purchase made on their website with Apple Payso if you took advantage of a Black Friday campaign, or simply got a new iPhone, AirTag or cable from the company, and paid with Apple Pay on their page, you will also have contributed.
Apple raises 3 million for AIDS
If you have been following Apple for a few years, you will know that, at the time, they launched red models, called RED, a brand that not only had color as its main characteristic, but also helped, as at this time, the AIDS patients. Everything worked in a very simple way, and that is that if you chose an iPhone, Apple Watch, or any “RED” product, a part of what you paid for it was destined for this disease, although it actually cost you the same. one color than another.
For a long time, Apple has not launched these models, which are expected by many, and not because of the cause itself, but because the design seems very interesting to them, and they are looking for an iPhone or another accessory in this color, however, It seemed like the collaboration was over, until last month, where we saw how they launched this campaign.
Apple donated $5 for every Apple Pay purchase made at Apple from Nov 29 – Dec 8, raising a total of $3 million for the @GlobalFund! Thank you, @Apple and Apple customers for hitting this incredible milestone and helping provide life-saving healthcare in vulnerable communities.

As we can see in the official RED publication, Apple would have achieved 3 million dollars through this campaign, where, as we said, they donated 5 dollars per transactionregardless of whether you bought a $30 cable or a $1,000 iPhone, so small contributions were what helped reach that goal.
AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) is a disease caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This virus attacks and weakens the immune system, leaving the body vulnerable to infections and certain types of cancer.
According to UNAIDS, in 2023, approximately 39 million people were living with HIV/AIDS in the world. Despite advances in antiretroviral treatments that improve quality of life, which can be financed and researched thanks to donations like Apple’s.
For now we do not have new RED productsHowever, after the success of this campaign, we hope that they collaborate again, and we can soon see a new red iPhone, the truth is that I loved it, and even more so if I know that I am helping with your purchase.
And you, do you have any products from this range? At the time there were many that came out, and the majority of people who acquired them did not even know the purpose of them, and only chose the color that caught their attention the most, this red range being the one chosen, but as we say, without knowing that part of their payment would go to aid against AIDS. Leave us a comment with your opinion and if you have any of the above.
