1% for Kids
We believe that everyone has the right to pure and simple food. But the reality is 1 in 5 children in the U.S. live at risk of hunger. That’s why we donate 1% of all the granola and bars we make to programs and partners that serve kids affected by food insecurity. With any 18 Rabbits purchase, you help the leaders of tomorrow get the sustenance they need today.
Share our Strength reports that nationwide, 62% of teachers report regularly having kids come to their classroom hungry. School lunches and breakfasts are great, but we know healthy snacks are also important. That’s where we feel as 18 Rabbits we can uniquely make a difference.
Why bars, and not cash?
First, we believe that our bars represent our mission better than any dollar amount could. Jr bars are a great school snack, since they are largely allergen-friendly, come in kid-approved flavors, and have the appropriate nutritional profile and calorie count for a school-age child. Second, it’s a tangible commitment that can’t be manipulated or changed like a % of cash or profit can. Last but not least, it’s easy for us and our stakeholders to understand and measure.
