The Campaign

What happened in Egypt on January 25th 2011 was exceptional from all aspects; business and personal. JAN 25th revolution wasn’t just a political revolution; it was a complete evolution in Egyptians’ mindset & that’s why most companies were obliged to change their behaviors. School is the best place where kids shape their characters & personalities. However, due to the current economic situation in Egypt, many unfortunate families keep their children out of schools in order to help them in providing life’s basic necessities. Chipsy, with its Egyptian origin, decided to help those deprived families & kids by taking an active role through supporting/promoting the WFP (Food For Education Program). With this program, Chipsy will provide free meals to children and their families in return keep their kids in schools and to allow those deprived kids to get the GREAT opportunity of experiencing a phase in their lives that is very precious.

The Situation

Chipsy /WFP campaign idea was mainly driven by consumer insight: “Egyptians want everybody/entity to contribute in rebuilding the country” Because of the instability the country is facing, Chipsy took an active role towards the community & connecting emotionally with its consumers and walk the talk by contributing back to the society. Based on research conducted after the Egyptian revolution it was clear that the issue most Egyptians were concerned about was education. Accordingly the brand decided to support / promotes the WFP (Food for Education Program) through its CSR campaign that provides free meals to children and their families.
