The Sandwich Swap *n* Share Program Brings The Tradition Of Sandwich Swapping Online To Benefit Feeding America
(NAPSI) – The best sandwiches of your childhood were often the ones you scored through a swap with a classmate. Now, enjoying – and sharing – a delicious sandwich can help give food to others. Hellmann’s and Best Foods Mayonnaise have teamed up with musician and actor Billy Ray Cyrus to encourage people of all ages to celebrate this childhood tradition by joining the Hellmann’s virtual Sandwich Swap *n* Share program to support Feeding America, the nation’s leading domestic hunger relief charity.
Feeding America
For every sandwich created at Facebook.com/hellmanns, Hellmann’s and Best Foods will donate seven lunches to Feeding America. Creating a sandwich automatically enters participants for a chance to win a $250 grocery store gift certificate. For each virtual sandwich shared with a friend on Facebook, Hellmann’s will donate an additional seven lunches to the charity. ‘You can’t find a bigger sandwich fan than me – I’m a real food, real sandwich man,’ said Cyrus. ‘I am honored to be a part of this program, and the best part is that we’ll hopefully inspire folks to join the effort to end hunger by supporting Feeding America.’
