LOS ANGELES, CA, November 18, 2011
/24-7PressRelease/ -- As social issues surrounding childhood obesity continue to be a major concern addressed by government organizations, educational institutions, and non-profits alike, private-sector, consumer-facing brands Grocery Coupon Network and Go Go Mongo! will do their part to join the fight against this epidemic during what is generally the most indulgent time of year.
On Wednesday, November 16, 2011 the brands will launch "Mommy's Healthy Eaters," a campaign to engage their over one million combined community members and encourage information-sharing with regard to kids healthy snacks, recipes, and tricks for getting them to "love those leafy greens." From 8 a.m. PST to 5 p.m. PST, consumers will have the opportunity to win a $100 Whole Foods gift card as well as a Go Go Mongo! signature "Plush Toy." All participants will be encouraged to download Go Go Mongo! "Lite," the iOS iPhone/iPad that empowers kids aged two to four to make healthy eating choices and teaches them about "good" versus "bad" foods.
Utilizing their Facebook fan pages, Grocery Coupon Network and Go Go Mongo! will encourage their communities to submit "healthy kids' snack" ideas via their Facebook comments section for one entry into the "Mommy's Healthy Eaters" drawing. A bonus entry will be submitted for those who also post their favorite photo of their child eating a healthy snack.
"We are extremely excited for the launch of this campaign as well as our strategic partnership with Go Go Mongo! and believe 'Mommy's Healthy Eaters' will set the stage for future efforts by both brands to inspire and educate families about the importance of kids healthy eating habits."
Added Go Go Mongo! Founder Ahmed Siddiqui: "Our hope is to mobilize our combined community of over one million 'economically conscious consumers' to make a real impact on how kids learn about and view food. This is one step in the right direction to changing the epidemic of childhood obesity, and through continued efforts we believe we have the ability to use our platforms positively to that end."
