5 Childhood Hunger Initiative The “Summer Servings” Campaign From summer 2011 to 2012, added 81,000 meals (+11%) Executed critical research program; 5000 respondents – Key learnings: lack of awareness is still top issue; activities at sites will “draw in” kids Core team in place (three months earlier than last year) Goal is to grow by >25% in 2012 5

6 Childhood Hunger Initiative “BackSack” Program Geared towards providing chronically hungry children with weekend nutrition – 3300 kids served in last school year At end of 2011….5100 kids in 101 schools! On track for 10,000 kids by end of school year 2012 Educators consistently discuss benefits: better attendance, improved focus, fewer behavioral issues 6

7 Childhood Hunger Initiative School Breakfast Program (SBP) – Only half of eligible children receive breakfast – Increase participation in federally funded breakfast program – Understand and leverage best practices using Six Sigma methodology – Pilot enhanced processes in 3 schools in January 2012 – Expand to 60 schools in 2012-2013 school year 7

8 Hunger Awareness Campaign A Bold and Sustainable Plan The time is right for major “leap forward” to further support hungry Hoosiers Develop and execute an Awareness Campaign utilizing the 211 organization as a cornerstone Working closely with core members of the Indy Hunger Network leadership, Publicis has developed an integrated plan that includes three phases: – Phase I: Research and Planning – Phase II: Referral Sources Launch – Phase III: Consumer Launch 8

9 A Public/Private Partnership It can work! What are some key components (Elanco perspective): – “Wildly” engaged senior leadership – Dedicated time and resources….and mean it! Specifically identified (and funded) programs Targeted use of people…and their skills Half day per quarter devoted to hunger cause Does not have to be a huge investment….but focus is important – Lots of “invested” employees Not all wish to participate….though many do But, everyone need to understand why! 9
