Fergie has been the MAC VIVA GLAM VI lipstick spokesperson since February and she is raising a great deal of money for the cause. For several years, MAC has been finding beautiful celebrities to be the face of their campaign to raise money for the prevention of the spread of AIDS. Each celeb promotes a lipgloss bearing their name. The proceeds from the sale of the lipgloss goes to the MAC AIDS Fund’s Global Youth Prevention Initiative.
This year Fergie’s lipgloss has managed to bring the Global Youth Prevention Initiative over $2.3 million. That’s pretty impressive and Fergie is very proud of the accomplishment. According to www.marketwatch.com, she recently spoke of the campaign:
Every 15 seconds someone between the ages of 15 and 24 is infected with HIV, and combating the spread of this disease has a lot to do with raising awareness,” said Fergie. “As a musician, I’m able to reach a wider audience about issues close to my heart, and through the VIVA GLAM campaign, I’ve been able to get this message across to youth around the world. I’m so gratified that my lipglass has raised funds to help prevent youth across the globe from contracting HIV.”
Way to go Fergie, keep up the good work!
