***Established brands who license the (PRODUCT) RED mark send a
portion of the profits made on (PRODUCT) RED products directly to the
Global Fund to fight AIDS in Africa. (RED) never handles this
money.***

So we create a red skin, pay (RED) to use their name, handle all the
money and donations to the Global Fund, and (RED) does what exactly?
While I appreciate the cause, I just don't get it.  --LV
