MOBILE MARKETING NEWS


Feeding America an early nonprofit adopter of Snapchat filters

Nonprofit Feeding America is raising awareness of the hunger problem in the United States with a comprehensive mobile-driven campaign that takes the typical selfie activation to the next level by leveraging Snapchat for an out-of-home engagement opportunity.

In one of Snapchat’s first nonprofit partnerships, consumers in New York’s Times Square last week were able to access filter based on the focal image of the campaign, an orange spoon. The mobile and social focus continues throughout the month of September, providing consumers with multiple opportunities to show their support via Facebook and Twitter.

“Millennials are an important, yet relatively new, strategic audience for Feeding America,” said Danielle Himmelman, marketing manager at Feeding America. “This campaign in particular has additional emphasis in the targeting of this consumer segment, because we know that they are highly interested in social issues and are driven to get involved to help solve them.

“We also know that Snapchat's user base includes hundreds of millions of users per month, which is a great way to engage millennials where they already are and tell our story to this important audience in order to hopefully mobilize them in the fight to solve hunger,” she said.
