P&G’s Purpose is to touch and improve lives, now and for generations to come. Our Purpose guides and inspires everything we do and it comes to life in many different ways. One way is through P&G’s Live, Learn and Thrive programs. We have set a goal to improve the lives of more than 300 million children and youth in need around the world by 2012. By partnering with Feeding America to invest in child hunger initiatives and through product donations, we improve quality of life for families in need throughout the U.S.

As part of the company’s Live, Learn, and Thrive cause, Procter & Gamble plays a leading role in the fight against child hunger by supporting Feeding America in providing food and groceries to children in need. Over the past several decades P&G has been a loyal partner to Feeding America through financial and product donations and was honored to be named “Donor of the Year” two years in a row.

Just last year, P&G helped disadvantaged children receive essential nutrition by donating 5.7 million pounds of product, contributing $450,000, and raising awareness through cause marketing campaigns on its businesses. Feeding America was a vital partner in helping P&G benefit 75 million children last year under their Live, Learn and Thrive cause banner.
