Kashi’s Day of Change homepage poses this simple question: “Can one day really change your life?” They answered that question with a resounding “YES!” at each Day of Change event across the country last year—at which many Vocalpoint members gathered to see what the events were all about.
Day of Change was all about inspiring people to take steps to start living healthier, through better eating and other steps—like getting a good night’s rest. There were educational booths to teach guests what to look for on a nutrition label and how to “naturalize” a recipe. At the Kashi Café tent, there were oodles of free samples of Kashi cereal, granola bars, cookies and crackers, all featuring Kashi’s signature seven whole grains. Other giveaways of the day included reusable grocery bags and Burt’s Bees® personal care products.
Vocalpoint was thrilled to see that so many of our members attended the Day of Change events with their families. We also loved hearing your important feedback! The event was a huge success, and we’re glad you had such a great time. Below are just a few of the voices we were lucky to hear from:
“The freebies Kashi gave away were fantastic!” said Stephanie, a Vocalpoint member who attended the event with her family in Boise, Idaho. “One of the things I am committed to changing as a result of attending the event is that I will now take my re-useable grocery bags every time I go shopping. I want to do my part to not place plastic bags in our landfills.”
“What a great event,” said Renae, another member of Vocalpoint who attended the event with her son. “My four-year-old loves the Burt’s Bees® toothpaste, and he wants more of the fruit leather!”
Kari, Vocalpoint member and a Boise attendee, had the chance to try many different samples of both Kashi snacks and Burt’s Bees® products. But “even better than all the free products was how encouraging Kashi and Burt’s Bees® were to help us all become better people, both in regard to other people and to the earth.”
