The Asda 'You Buy, We Donate' campaign is being run thanks to a partnership between Unilever and Asda in the UK to benefit BBC Children in Need in the UK as a way to raise funds for those who need it. The campaign is running from August 8 through September 10, 2024 at Asda locations and showcases a number of Unilever brands including Hellmann's, Pot Noodle and Radox. The campaign aims to drive awareness of food insecurity during school holidays and will be promoted through in-store marketing endeavors at Asda locations across the UK to help spur involvement.
