Inspire healthier choices and stronger communities
In today’s competitive grocery landscape, brands are constantly searching for ways to connect with shoppers in meaningful ways. As health-conscious consumers demand transparency, nutrition and purpose-driven initiatives, retailers and brands that align with these values are winning loyalty. That’s where Healthy Family Project comes in.
For more than two decades, Healthy Family Project has been a catalyst for positive change in the grocery space, seamlessly blending cause marketing with impactful nutrition education. In 2025, the organization’s retail campaigns will continue shaping the way families shop by driving healthier eating choices through activations at Publix Super Markets, Associated Wholesale Grocer’s Springfield and Gulf Coast divisions, Coborn’s, Cashwise, Marketplace Foods, Lowes Foods and DeCa commissaries across the U.S.
Cause marketing with real impact
Healthy Family Project’s retail campaigns are designed to make a hyperlocal impact, with donations benefiting Feeding America® food banks in the retailer’s own communities. By focusing on food banks within each market, these campaigns directly support families where they shop. While our primary mission is to fight hunger through Feeding America, past campaigns have also extended support to community-based organizations such as Boys & Girls Club and Our Military Kids, further amplifying the positive reach of our efforts. This localized approach ensures that each campaign drives meaningful change where it matters most - right in the heart of the communities our retail partners serve.
Beyond the grocery aisle: a multi-platform approach
Point-of-sale (POS) signs and displays play a crucial role in engaging shoppers, offering visually compelling calls-to-action that encourage families to make nutritious choices. But the impact doesn’t stop at the register. Healthy Family Project extends its reach beyond brick-and-mortar stores with an engaging digital and social media presence.
From Instagram Lives featuring campaign partners to cooking classes hosted by retail dietitians, brands gain valuable exposure in creative, interactive ways. These sessions provide an opportunity to showcase products in real-time, sharing insights, recipes and health tips that resonate with today’s social-savvy consumers. The combination of digital content and in-store activations creates a 360-degree experience that keeps brands top-of-mind long after shoppers leave the store.
A dietitian-approved seal of trust
Shoppers are increasingly looking for expert-backed nutritional guidance, and Healthy Family Project delivers exactly that. All content, recipes and recommendations are carefully curated by the organization’s team of registered dietitians, ensuring credibility and trust. Retail campaigns even incorporate dietitian teams within participating grocers, further reinforcing the message that choosing healthier options can be both simple and delicious.
Power of purpose driven marketing
Healthy Family Project has a proven track record of delivering results, having raised more than $8 million for charities that support families since 2022. Brands that participate in these campaigns don’t just gain shelf visibility - they gain a platform to tell a story that resonates with today’s conscious consumer.
At a time when shoppers are seeking brands with a purpose, partnering with Healthy Family Project is an opportunity to stand out in a crowded market. Whether through in-store promotions, social media collaborations, or cause-driven activations, brands that join the movement will not only drive sales but also create meaningful, lasting connections with their audience.
The grocery industry is evolving, and brands that prioritize health, community and impact will lead the way. Healthy Family Project is playing a role in shaping healthier, happier communities - one shopping cart at a time.
