Unilever Project Sunlight
- Help a Family in Your Neighborhood: Simply sharing a meal with a neighbor either in the form of a simple lunch or dinner party, or even packing an extra lunch for your child to take to school, could go a long way.
- Partner with Local Organizations: Local community organizations are great resources for sharing a meal in your area – simply tap into their networks to see how you can help.
- Coordinate with Your Local Food Bank: Whether you wish to volunteer or host your own local food drive, use Feeding America’s online Food Bank Locator tool to get in touch with a food bank in your area.
- Host a Virtual Food Drive: Feeding America’s Personal Fundraiser tool is a great place to start and to reach out to friends, family, and colleagues for contributions.
- Donate: Consider swapping a night out with a night in and share those extra savings with children and families in need in the form of a donation to Feeding America.
- You Buy One, We Give One: Look for the Unilever “You Buy One, We Give One” coupon offer in the Sunday paper on November 16. Redeem at participating stores from November 16 – 30 and Unilever will donate one meal* to Feeding America when you purchase any participating Unilever product.
- Lend Your Voice: Inspire others by revealing why you’re helping to end child hunger on social media using, “I #ShareAMeal because…”
Visit Project Sunlight to get involved. We’re putting together plans to Share a Meal in our community. Stay tuned!

It is so important to do what we can to help fight hunger in our Community. This is one thing that I always participate in. We are having a big food drive for Thanksgiving in my Community, and I help do my part so others can have a nice Thanksgiving.
what a wonderful project to support
Awesome program! We love to donate food to those in need. We do it every year when our community has a food collection drive.
Sounds like a wonderful program! We don’t always stop to think about the starving children out there.
such a great cause. we cant forget about the ones around us that arent getting enough to eat
I donate food all the time. It breaks my heart to think of children going to bed hungry. Any program that helps this cause is good with me.
Good ideas…if everyone did just a little bit, we could solve this problem.
Great Project!
We really all do need to help each other out, this is a fantastic project! How great to see a big corporate sponsor, thank you Unilever!
This looks like a great project! I try to help out when i can by donating at local food banks.
thank you for sharing this!
I use Amazon Smile to contribute to my local group that helps moms with food.
These are all great ideas. There is a huge need in our community to help out with feeding children.
It amazes me that kids go hungry in this country. We must all support the wonderful programs available to help stop hunger. I volunteer in our local soup kitchen and it is heartbreaking to see how many families with kids come in.
we donate to our local food bank regularly.
this is such a great cause to support
Recently one of the food banks in our community was completely out of food. This is tragic but so much of it is due to lack of jobs and inappropriate spending.
I am always amazed at the statistics of hunger across the nation, and in my own neck of the woods.
I’m so happy to see Unilever involved with child hunger.
This is an important project. We have a wonderful local food bank that does a great job of feeding those in need.
Wonderful project! We donate to the local food bank because hunger is a really big problem here.
We donate to a food bank and also to church fundraisers that raise money for needy families. It’s all about helping your community.
I totally SO appreciate our local Grocery store, a local chain, an owner who lives right in our town, so they have regular food drives for our local pantry. It is SO super super painless to give ONE dollar or five dollars from time to time, right at the checkout, for our pantry. SO painless. So needed, really. What does it hurt? everyone one of us can afford to give.
I was a single mom for a long time & appreciated all the help I received along the way. Now that I’m no my feet, I love giving back & supporting organizations that help people.
Awesome project!
Its hard to believe we can have this many hungry children with all the available food in America
This is such an amazing cause!
I’m proud to say that I use unilever brand products!
This is a project where we should all feel compelled to take part in.
Wow. What a great project.
I love it when the community comes together and help each other!
i love the idea of this program!
We are doing what we can. I helped students raise over $20,000 in the last 2 years to run a weekend food program for 120 children.
Sounds like a great project. It is hard to believe so many children are hungry.
Great ideas and a great reminder that there are hungry children (and adults) who need to be fed!
This is such a great idea and program to have.
This Is An Awesome Program! I Love Brands Like Unilever That Give Back!
That’s a great cause to support. Kuddos!
This is a wonderful program, and I am so glad I buy Unilever products
Since I volunteer at our food shelf I’m happy to see posts like this.
Yes there is an increasing need.
What a great program! so many ways for every one to help out.
Great project to help kids
I am so glad you introduced me to this. I plan to donate and also share via social media to spread the word.
I will be watching for the “You Buy One, We Give One” coupon offer in the Sunday paper on November 16. I volunteer at a food giveaway site and the food insecurity in our country is inexcusable. Thanks Unilever for helping!
tweeted out
I think this is important. I try to find the time apart from the holidays to give back/to feed.
Well, I’m completely shocked that so many kids go to bed hungry each night and never realized that it was such a huge issue here in America. How heartbreaking! I am absolutely in love with Unilever even more now, knowing that they are trying to make a difference and spread the word and feed these kids! I will be sure to lookout for the coupon in the paper tomorrow and use it next time I’m at the store so a child can get a meal! Thank you for this post because it definitely opened my eyes to the severity of hunger among children here in America, as well as told me a way I can help! 🙂
This is a great idea. When my son was almost 4, his father passed away and it was difficult to make ends meet. It’s important to remember these children after the holidays as well. Thank you for sharing!
sounds like a great program.we take boxes of food to my brothers neighbor who has a couple of kids whose husband recently passed away
I would love to support this great cause
What a great cause
Just donated food yesterday… I will keep stocking up when there are sales so I can keep donating
Such a wonderful project. The statistics break my heart.
I am here for the win
I work for a school and see it first hand that some kids are hungry. If some did not get the meals at school they would not have anything to eat. It is very sad. This should not be happening in America!!!!
That 16 mil number is staggering. This is such a great and important project! Thanks for sharing!
Such a worthy cause. thank you so much for caring
this is a great cause. we donate food when we can but we never feel like it is enough. Good that corporations are taking an interest.
I was a hungry kid once. Those donations make a difference.
This is an awesome program! I just donated some food for Thanksgiving baskets. I’ve had help when I needed it years ago, I’m just trying to pay it forward.
Keep up the good work.
i love the buy one give one, giving back is important
Wonderful cause. I work and give to our food pantry
Thanks for sharing the information about Project Sunlight. I’ll definitely look for that coupon in today’s newspaper–what an easy way to help out a much-needed cause.
this a great think for them to do, i didnt know so many kids go hungry every year int the usa
I volunteer at my local food bank.
Amazing cause
No child should ever go hungry
What a wonderful project right here at home in the USA. There are so many hungry people right here at home that I love to see ones like this.
No child should go hungry, this is a great project!
GreaT cause that Unilever has taken up. Will help so many people!
This is definitely a cause close to my heart. I donate goods to the local food pantry when possible, but it’s heartening to see efforts undertaken by corporations.
This is so damn sad..No child should ever have to go to bed hungry. I think this is an awesome project 🙂
Such a great cause is dad how much hunger goes on in America
Such a great cause it’s sad how much hunger goes on in America
I’d never thought of the possibility of a virtual food drive — what a fantastic idea, and one that would definitely be a great way to collect canned goods and non-perishables for an entire community or network of friends or colleagues!
This is so sad but we can try to fight it, thats for sure!
This is something that we should have in America. We all need to do what we can to help fight hunger in our own communities, so very important to get behind this project! 🙂
Fantastic!!! I think that there should be continuous promotions like this.
This is a great and important project. No child should go hungry in this world.
These are wonderful tips and it would be nice if people got involved on this level. If you can’t donate your time, donate a can or more. Remember, people getting help are often embarrassed to be seen there getting help. Something greater that you can offer is compassion and understanding.
What a wonderful program and a great way to help and be involved!
We donate whenever we can to the needy.
Most of the schools in our area hold food drives at this time of the year. No one in this country should go to bed hungry.
Most of the schools and colleges in our area hold food drives at this time of the year. No one in this country should have to go hungry.
We support our local food bank with donations, and volunteer at least once a month !
