Red Hot Organization
The Red Hot Organization is an international organization dedicated to fighting AIDS through pop culture. First founded as King Cole, Inc. by Leigh Blake and John Carlin in 1989, Red Hot Organization has since produced fourteen albums, related television programs and media events incorporating the talents of performers, visual artists, producers and directors to raise funds and awareness for HIV and AIDS.
To date, Red Hot's efforts have donated nearly 7 million dollars for AIDS relief around the world. Besides funding AIDS research and education, Red Hot awarded grants in cooperation with existing AIDS organizations, such as the National Minority AIDS Council. Revenues from the sale of albums and videos in foreign countries remained within each respective country to help support local AIDS prevention and relief.
