Although each B\/ERG is unique, they often join forces to drive impact.

Diversity and inclusion are among Kellogg’s greatest strengths.<\/p>\n

Kellogg’s African American Resource Group (KAARG) provides all employees with an opportunity to network and participate in events that demonstrate how black and African Americans experience the workplace. Although each B\/ERG is unique, we often join forces to drive greater impact. A recent example was a virtual fundraiser we held to support World Food Day.<\/p>\n

Food insecurity has reached an all-time high this year because of the pandemic. As it spreads, it’s estimated that an additional 83 to 132 million people will go hungry. Kellogg typically holds in-person food drives for World Food Day, but that couldn’t happen this year. So, we got creative \u2013 and competitive. <\/p>\n

We challenged our B\/ERGs to see who could raise the most money. It’s fun for me to write this post, because a) I’m a little competitive; and b) KAARG won the competition. <\/p>\n

But this wasn’t about wins and losses. <\/p>\n

In all, donations on behalf of our eight B<\/span>\/ERGs and Kellogg’s company match totaled nearly $45,000<\/span> for United Way hunger programs. And, because KAARG won the competition, Kellogg will donate $5,000<\/span> on our behalf to Martha’s Table<\/a>, the non-profit that increases access to high-quality education and healthy food.<\/p>\n

When you consider five dollars<\/span> donates up to 50 meals, the $50,000<\/span> we collectively raised goes an extremely long way toward helping relieve food insecurity in a year when more people need it. We live in a world right now that seems hyper-focused on our differences. And while our unique attributes are important, it’s also nice to remember that we can join forces for a greater cause.<\/p>\n
