Penelope for (RED) at Cannes


Earlier this week friend of (RED) Penelope Cruz hosted The Hollywood Domino Party at the Cannes Film Festival despite suffering food poisoning and the flu just days before. The Domino Party aimed to raise money for the Global Fund in the spirit of (RED). Guests included Lily Cole, Alberta Ferretti, Stella McCartney and Paris Hilton. Thanks for your support Penelope!

Thanks (RED) for giving us a follow up on this event at the Cannes Film Festival. It's very much appreciated.

I think what the involvement of famous people like Penelope Cruz & others for (RED) indicates is that ALL of us have the privilege & the responsibility to do whatever we can for the world's poorest people.

And whether we are hosting a fundraiser in Cannes or whether we are buying a (RED) item, we are ALL working together to bring much needed ARV's & assistance to those in Africa who desperately need our concern & our action for them!


Thanks (RED) for all that you are doing. We will always be here to support your efforts.


ALWAYS (RED) AT HEART, debbie :)

INDEED. All of you out there, celebrity or not, giving of your time, your funds, your hope, etc - THANK YOU. As a (RED) product supporter I feel lucky and proud that there are so many others out there dedicated to the cause. Let's keep it up. As shown by this campaign, an individual contribution need not be $1 to make a difference.
Read about (RED). You'll learn that even a quarter might change someone's life.
