Post Foods, makers of popular breakfast cereals like Raisin Brand, Honey Bunches of Oats, and Shredded Wheat, is teaming up with Feeding America (formerly known as America’s Second Harvest), one of the nation’s largest domestic hunger relief charities.
Post’s “Bowls of Hope” program will help provide balanced breakfasts to struggling American families. For every box of Post Shredded Wheat purchased, the company will donate one bowl of cereal to Feeding America, up to 15 million bowls.
The purchase of a Bowls of Hope specially-marked cereal will support Post’s efforts in donating a bowl of Post Shredded Wheat Original, Shredded Wheat Spoon Size Original, Shredded Wheat and Bran, Shredded Wheat Lightly Frosted and Shredded Wheat Honey Nut.
Each variety is heart-healthy, offers the benefits of whole grains, is a good source of fiber, and provides a simple approach to feeling good while doing good.
The Post and Feeding America’s Bowls of Hope program will run until December 31, 2009.
I love Shredded Wheat (and so do my kids!) so I’ll definitely be adding a couple extra boxes to my cart on my next grocery trip. My favorite way to enjoy them is covered completely in milk so they absorb as much of it as they can, but did you know you can actually cook and bake with the cereal?
