DES MOINES, IOWA - Feb. 19, 2014 - From game day parties to weekday meals pork is a versatile favorite, and it's no surprise that it has captured the hearts of people across America. Starting on Feb. 14, the Pork Checkoff began celebrating the love of pork with consumers, through an integrated marketing program, including a national pork share-a-thon.
"Our consumer target is growing, and they love pork," said Randy Brown, vice chair of the Pork Checkoff Domestic Marketing committee and a farmer from Nevada, Ohio. "By sharing that pork passion, we engage with our biggest pork advocates to remind and help them enjoy pork more often."
The national pork share-a-thon encourages pork fans everywhere to share their pork love by tagging their declarations of pork love on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram with #PorkLUV. A real-time online engagement aggregator will track #PorkLUV as it
crisscrosses the nation.
Pork fans who share their #PorkLUV will be helping their state compete for a food bank donation of 30,000 meals of fresh pork. The state that shares the most #PorkLUV from February 14 to March 7 will receive the pork, divided amongst food banks throughout the state. In addition to supporting the cause, everyone who shares a little #PorkLUV will receive a $1-off fresh pork coupon.1
"#PorkLUV is all about giving our fans a chance to declare their passion and share it among friends and family - all in the name of a great cause," said Brown.
