On Tuesday, Apple introduced its latest and greatest color option for the iPhone 7: red. The trendsetting, multinational tech company is turning its attention to AIDS prevention and research, with some of its proceeds going to the organization (RED).
As a partner of (RED)’s for over a decade, this is not the first time Apple has contributed to helping create an AIDS-free generation.

In a statement on Tuesday, Apple said it has already raised $130 million for (RED) through this program.
“The introduction of this special edition iPhone in a gorgeous red finish is our biggest (PRODUCT)RED offering to date in celebration of our partnership with (RED), and we can’t wait to get it into customers’ hands," Apple CEO Tim Cook said.
