A campaign that I have been a part of and I have found to be so successful was the campaign Disney came up with for Make A Wish. It's called #ShareYourEars. I was so thrilled when I saw this campaign hit the internet. During my junior year of college I was an intern for Disney. I was able to meet several of the children that got to come to the parks in part of Make-A-Wish. For every picture shared of someone wearing their Ears or even just displaying them Disney donated $5 but also encouraged you to donate as well. Though several of my friends still work at Disney I still stay in the know when it comes to Disney blogs and so on. Make-A-Wish has always been Disney biggest philanthropy that they are involved in and they give their cast members opportunities to volunteer with this incredible foundation.

It is bright and attractive and makes me want to visit a store. It contains links to recipes, tips on grilling, preparing summer meals on the go, cooking videos, store coupons and a blog for feedback and questions. I may make the ham & rhubarb jam toasties tonight they look delicious! There is even a link that gives suggestions for the best wines to purchase under $20.00. However, Whole Foods is very expensive for the average consumer and they could do more to appeal to them.
