As we wrap up last few days left of GROW month, lets take a moment to talk about all the benefit and services that GROW provides to communities in our banana growing regions of Mexico and Ecuador. The GROW label from Organics Unlimited has been helping families by providing funds to Project Amigo, a non-profit organization. With the financial support they receive from the GROW label, Project Amigo is able to provide the communities with vision clinics, dental clinics, literacy and an educational programs. These services are vital to the community and quite successful. Over 90% of the students that are a part of the Project Amigo scholarship program are attending the university and many have graduated to become very successful. Some of those success stories have continued to be a part of their community and have helped the current students in their health and education.
With each box of GROW bananas sold, a portion of the proceeds go into the GROW Fund. These donations are managed and distributed by the International Community Foundation. Project Amigo in Mexico and Children International in Ecuador are two organizations where GROW has helped build better communities and have changed the lives of many. However, none of this would be possible without the support we receive from you.
Every September, we promote GROW and take the opportunity to educate and inspire our consumers to make a difference through their GROW purchases. What does this mean for you? Even though GROW month is almost over, we encourage you to think about your merchandising displays and about other ways you can help promote the GROW label year round. With your support in promoting the sale of GROW bananas, we can make a difference in the lives of many people.
