AHLEM has partnered with (RED) to create a limited-edition frame supporting the fight against AIDS. This collaboration aims to raise funds and awareness for (RED)’s mission to combat AIDS and strengthen global healthcare systems. AHLEM commits to contributing 40% of the net proceeds from each (AHLEM)RED frame sold to support (RED)’s efforts.

 

About (RED)

Founded in 2006 by Bono and Bobby Shriver, (RED) has generated over $785 million for the Global Fund to date, helping more than 325 million people. (RED) funding supports life-saving programs that empower health workers and provide testing, treatment, and care in places where injustice has enabled pandemics to thrive.

 

 

 

The (AHLEM)RED Frame

 

The (AHLEM)RED frame is a reimagined version of AHLEM’s iconic Babylone cat-eye silhouette. Crafted in bold red acetate, it features champagne hardware electrodipped in 22k gold. Each frame is meticulously crafted and individually numbered, presented in a custom red vegan leather case, and accompanied by a collectible cleaning cloth designed by renowned Ghanaian artist Oheneba-Takyi Joshua.

 

 

Where to Find the (AHLEM)RED Frame

 

The (AHLEM)RED frame is available through AHLEM’s official website. Given the limited production run, availability is expected to be short-lived. Purchasing this frame not only secures a unique piece of eyewear but also plays a role in supporting a vital cause.
