Fight Aids By Buying 'Dance (Red) Saves Lives 2' Today

Help (RED) fight against the AIDS epidemic by purchasing Dance (RED) Saves Lives 2 on iTunes.

A whopping 35 million people across the globe live with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the lentivirus that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). And over the last three decades, AIDS has killed more than 36 million people, despite the fact that it's preventable and treatable. But it's not just adults who are impacted, everyday 700 babies are born with HIV. Without antiretroviral treatment, 50 percent of these babies will die before their second birthday. In other words, in this crazy and screwed up world, AIDS takes the cake as one of the most awful aspects of our existence and we need to do whatever we can to fight against it so little babies across the globe aren't being born with a death sentence.

Since 2006, (RED) has lead the fight against the AIDS epidemic by coming up with an innovative model that generates a sustainable flow of money from the private sector. Their latest endeavor to further the fight against AIDS through our consumption is Dance (RED) Saves Lives 2, the second album in a compilation series that features the world’s biggest dance and pop artists. The record's 24 tracks of new music and exclusive remixes has contributions from artists like Katy Perry, Tommy Trash, Empire of The Sun, Calvin Harris, Tiësto, Coldplay, Swedish House Mafia, Robin Thicke, and Martin Solveig.

We know dance and pop music aren't everyone's bag, but ALL of the album's proceeds go directly to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS. So even if you're into post-industrial psychosexual garage space anthems and you can't stand music that makes people happy and gets girls shaking their booties, you should still buy like ten copies of this thing to support the cause.
