Olives Anyone???
Olives are for pizzas. Olives are for salads. But this Christmas, olives are hitting the streets and going to charity. Lindsay Olives is, well, an olive company that sells all different kinds of olives-small, large, black, green, and everything in between. This Holiday season they are challenging everyone across America to give.
Starting November 1, they are calling on kids across the country to show they can help by holding their own canned food drive to help other children and their families in need. They are calling this nation-wide food drive Lindsay’s Santa Cause.
The Santa Cause program is comprised of two elements. The first is a canned food drive where Lindsay Olives will invite youth groups nationwide to collect canned goods for their local food banks. Participating classes and groups will compete to win a $3,000 grand prize for the group that donates the highest percentage of cans.
The second component is a Buy One, Give One effort, which will allow members of the community to help food banks, even if they are not part of a youth group, team or class. For each can of Lindsay Olives that a customer purchases from November 1-December 31, 2011, Lindsay Olives will donate a can to a food bank. Lindsay Olives will match customer purchases up to 25,000 cans.
Who knew olives could have the potential to make such a difference this Holiday season. You can encourage your children to participate through their school, church, sports team, or any other group/club they are involved in. And you can head out to the grocery store and pick up some Lindsay Olives knowing that the can of olives you buy will be matched by the company and donated to a food bank.
