As part of the Blog It Forward To Fight Hunger campaign, a program designed to increase hunger awareness, bloggers were asked to engage their audience in a conversation about hunger. For every comment on a blogger’s post, up to 30 comments, ShopRite and General Mills pledged to donate one box of cereal to a local food bank.

More than 80 bloggers participated in the Blog It Forward To Fight Hunger campaign, resulting in a donation of 3,000 boxes of cereal to local food banks in ShopRite’s trading area of New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Connecticut and Maryland. To honor their participation, each of the bloggers is featured in a photo mosaic on a special-edition Honey Nut Cheerios box, now available exclusively at ShopRite stores.

“We are grateful to all the bloggers who joined Bloggers In Caring,” said Christine Magyarits, ShopRite Partners In Caring spokesperson. “Their willingness to share their thoughts and engage their readers in the hunger-fighting cause helps to elevate the awareness level of those at risk of hunger in our communities.”
