Also on Tuesday, Apple released a new red iPhone in honor of its partnership with the (RED) campaign. Apple joined with (RED) 10 years ago to help fund AIDS research.
“Apple is the world’s largest corporate donor to the Global Fund, contributing more than $130 million as part of its partnership with (RED),” said Deborah Dugan, (RED)’s CEO. “Combining the global reach of the world’s most loved smartphone with our efforts to provide access to life-saving ARV medication in sub-Saharan Africa, customers now have a remarkable opportunity to make a difference and contribute to the Global Fund through the purchase of this new beautiful (PRODUCT)RED iPhone.”
The red iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will be available in 128GB and 256GB models starting at $749 from apple.com and Apple Stores.
