With #ScoopItForward, VolunteerMatch is helping Target and Ben & Jerry's inspire #volunteering with free ice cream: http://3bl.me/8wsz52(3BLMedia/theCSRfeed) July 30, 2010 - Target has debuted two new, exclusive Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavors at all stores nationwide. The super premium ice cream flavors, Berry Voluntary® and Brownie Chew Gooder®, are available throughout 2010 in mini cups and pints. And with help from VolunteerMatch, they're inspiring more people to volunteer.
The fun flavors were specifically created to encourage Target guests to volunteer in their local communities through a special promotion called "Scoop It Forward" at VolunteerMatch. Guests simply visit www.VolunteerMatch.org/scoopitforward to find volunteer opportunities in their neighborhoods. After registering for a specific volunteer activity, and forwarding the opportunity to five friends, that person and each of his or her friends will receive a coupon for a free pint of Ben & Jerry's ice cream, redeemable at Target stores, while supplies last.
