I'm a big fan of Google search, especially when looking up news. Yesterday I came across this story written about teenagers, by a teenager, entitled "Kids Today: Think red and give back." Take a look at the excerpt below.
Truly heartwarming. Thank you, Sheboygan Falls!

Who doesn't want an easy way to make a difference in the world?
With companies going Product Red for AIDS in Africa, all you have to do is buy one of their products and part of the profit goes to fighting HIV/AIDS in Africa through The Global Fund.
"It helps people less fortunate than us and people who have health problems," said Nicole Degaro, 13, of Sheboygan Falls.

Thanks bn for posting the link to this FANTASTIC article from my home state - Wisconsin!!
I thought that it was GREAT to allow the young people to speak for themselves and show their support for (RED). My favorite part out of the whole article was this quote:
"I would like to see the line of shoes expanded," said Degaro, "Everyone wears shoes."
EXACTLY, my dear young friends in Sheboygan. What (RED) is trying to do is to give the customer the option of choosing a (RED) product over another similar non(RED) product to show our support of the movement to make extreme poverty history.
Everybody does wear shoes so what (RED) wants to do is to give you MORE CHOICES to buy a (RED) pair of shoes over another pair. So I hope that in the near future that (RED) can provide you and your friends with more choices so that you can buy more (RED) shoes.~
I just love these articles that highlight what young people can do and are doing to change the world for the better. It gives me renewed hope for our movement to end extreme poverty.
So, KUDOS TO SHEBOYGAN! Please continue to show YOUR SUPPORT FOR (RED)!
Take very good and gentle care of each other. Blessings are always around.
ALWAYS (RED) AT HEART, debbie :)
