"Go Orange" for No Kid Hungry at Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt

This month, Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt in Newport (198 Thames Street) is in the full throws of a Go Orange for No Kid Hungry campaign to help end childhood hunger in America. Joining other Orange Leaf stores across the country, the location in Newport is adding to a fundraising goal of $50,000 during the month of September.  All funds will go to Share Our Strenghth's No Kid Hungry campaign. 

The campaign runs through September 30 and it's easy to join the effort.  To help raise awareness of the issue of childhood hunger in America, Orange Leaf is selling limited edition “Go Orange for No Kid Hungry” commemorative cups. Seventy-five cents from the sale of the $1 cups will be donated to Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry campaign. Additionally, customers who purchase the cups will receive a coupon for three free ounces of froyo to be used on a return visit. 

“Orange is the color for hunger awareness and September is No Kid Hungry month, so it is only natural that Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt will ‘Go Orange for No Kid Hungry’ to support this cause during the month,” said Reese Travis, CEO of Orange Leaf. “We have a deep sense of community commitment in each of our 300 stores, and are confident we will not only reach our goal of raising $50,000 but also engage the communities we serve in helping to end childhood hunger in America.”

In addition to purchasing a Go Orange for No Kid Hungry cup, patrons can also make credit card donations at all Orange Leaf locations. “Our goal is to contribute at least $50,000 to this very worthy cause but we hope the generosity of our patrons helps us bump that amount even higher,” added Travis.
