World AIDS Day App - FAQ

However, our new World AIDS Day app offers a virtual way for you to take part and donate this World AIDS Day. The app offers both the global red ribbon as well as the Victorian signature red ribbon. It also offers watch faces and wallpapers in a variety of World AIDS Day inspired designs.

UPDATE: We have been made aware of an issue with the app that has prevented people from making donations - if you're keen to donate to our World AIDS Day appeal, please head to: thorneharbour.org/donate and choose "World AIDS Day".
