The Color Spot Employees Donate Their Lunch Money

Marietta, Ga. (Nov. 1, 2011) The employees of The Color Spot, Inc. took the Share Our Strength® pledge and participated in the No Child Hungry® Campaign, Bag Childhood Hunger Day. Employees donated the cost of their lunch for the day in hopes of ending childhood hunger in America by 2015.

One in five children in America- more than 16 million- face hunger. Every dollar donated can help connect a child with up to ten healthy meals. In addition to raising $78, The Color Spot employees generated awareness on their Facebook and Twitter pages.


“I was shocked when I saw the statistics of hungry children in the U.S.,” said Brooke Brookins, Key Account Consultant. “Deciding to eat in for one day will provide a hungry child with several meals. It is a small gesture that makes a huge difference.”
