As part of the company’s Live, Learn, and Thrive cause, Procter & Gamble plays a leading role in the fight against child hunger by supporting Feeding America in providing food and groceries to children in need. Over the past several decades P&G has been a loyal partner to Feeding America through financial and product donations and was honored to be named “Donor of the Year” two years in a row.
Just last year, P&G helped disadvantaged children receive essential nutrition by donating 20 million pounds of product, contributing over $1.6 million, and raising awareness through cause marketing campaigns on its businesses. Feeding America was a vital partner in helping P&G benefit 75 million children last year under their Live, Learn and Thrive cause banner.
