FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Nationwide “Don’t Forget AIDS” Campaign Launches December 1, 2025, with Celebrity Backing and Multi-Platform Outreach
Frankfurt, Germany – November 26, 2025 – A new nationwide campaign, “Don’t Forget AIDS,” will launch on December 1, 2025, aiming to reignite public awareness and combat complacency surrounding HIV/AIDS. The initiative comes at a critical time, as advancements in treatment have led to a decrease in public discourse, possibly obscuring the ongoing need for prevention, testing, and support for those living with HIV. Despite medical progress, new infections continue to occur, and stigma remains a meaningful barrier to care.
The campaign will feature a new commercial debuting on RTL on December 1st, with free broadcast scheduled across 14 TV channels throughout 2026, alongside complimentary airtime on multiple nationwide radio stations. “Don’t Forget AIDS” is bolstered by the support of 26 prominent figures from entertainment, social media, music, and reality TV, who are lending their platforms to promote responsibility, testing, and solidarity. Supporters include Bert wollersheim, Ginger Wollersheim, Marianne Rosenberg, kevin Schäfer, Micaela Schäfer, Maurice Gajda, Michael Gajda, Kevin Flocke Platzer, Dieter Grabowski, Annemarie Herren, Annemarie Eifeld, Matthias Mangiapane, and Miss Kavila, among others.
Further extending its reach, the campaign will launch a dedicated website at www.vergissaidsnicht.de and an official online shop. The campaign song, “Light in Us,” will be released on all major streaming platforms on December 1, 2025.
