Happy National Guacamole Day!
Wholly Guacamole Helps Send Military Hero Kids To Camp!
Did you know today was National Guacamole Day? Me either! But my friends over at Wholly Guacamole told me so and therefore, I believe!
Also, it’s Sunday! And you know what that means? Football! What goes great with sitting on the couch watching football? Exactly! Wholly Guacamole! A month or so back, I cooked up some super terrific recipes using Wholly Guacamole. Wanna see? Go look over here for a Guacamole Chicken Wrap Recipe! Or maybe a Mean, Lean Burger with some Wholly Guac on top is more your style? Go ahead, I’ll wait!
Ok, now down to business. Wholly Guacamole is launching a new promotion called “Wholly Heroes”. It’s a project that is near and dear to their hearts. Starting today, they are celebrating a very special kind of hero! The children of the soldiers who honorably serve our country every day. Now tell me, how can you refuse to participate in that? You can’t… Here’s how you can help!
Every year, 2 million kids say goodbye to their moms or dads as they deploy. This means 2 million birthdays, first day of school, last day of school, holidays and special events are missed. Wholly Guacamole teamed up with Brad Meltzer, NY Times bestselling author and creator of Ordinary People Change The World. His team created the artwork for our Wholly™ Heroes program. The proceeds with go to Operation Purple® camps which is part of the National Military Family Association. These summer camps are special for military kids and the organization is a non-profit. Please help us meet our goal to send 100 kids to camp!
How can you help? Do this:
– Go to Be A Wholly Hero Page or the Wholly Guacamole Facebook Page to purchase a shirt or donate directly to Operation Purple camps!

Thanks for sharing! This is an awesome cause. Being a military brat, I will be happy to help spread the word :). All the best! #happyblogging
Being an Army Wife, this cause is especially close to my heart. So great to see that they are supporting Operation Purple and military kids! And the t-shirt design is SO cute!
That is so cool….I had no idea! I love that shirt!
As someone who comes from a mostly military family, it is so good to see a company giving back!
What a great cause!
