Apple has a long history of raising awareness and donating to the fight against HIV/AIDS. The tech company has sold Product (RED) items for years, and earlier this year, Apple design chief Jony Ive partook in a large charity auction for Product (RED).

Along with fellow famed designer Marc Newson, Ive designed special items for the auction, including an aluminum desk, a red Mac Pro, a Steinway & Sons parlor grand piano and a Leica M camera. Together, the items fetched several million dollars.
