Pampered Chef “Round Up From The Heart”
This Campaign Goes All Year Round and Impacts Every Food Bank
– Jan 03, 2012
The Pampered Chef’s Round-Up from the Heart® program is a year-long campaign that benefits Feeding America. Pampered Chef, with its nationwide sales field of 60,000 independent consultants and guests, have donated more than $13 million to Feeding America since its program began in 1991.
The company’s Consultants promote the campaign at Cooking Shows or in-home cooking demonstrations across the country.
The commitment to fight hunger in America is a team effort among The Pampered Chef’s Consultants and guests.
Customers can contribute to the program in two ways:
1. Rounding up Cooking Show purchase totals to the nearest dollar or more, with funds benefiting local food banks in the region where the donations originated.
2. Purchasing a limited edition Round-Up from the Heart® Trivet — a decorative, brushed copper trivet that can protect counters and tabletops from hot food, be used as a decorative wall accent, or given as a thoughtful gift. For every trivet sold, The Pampered Chef® will contribute $2 to Feeding America.
