Neutrogena Donates $200K To Charity

Neutrogena invited teens to show their support for the campaign by purchasing Oil-Free Acne Wash Pink Grapefruit products and the Wave Sonic Power-Cleanser. For every product sold, Neutrogena pledged $1—up to $200,000— to GlobalGiving, an organization that links donors to meaningful causes including environmental, educational and disaster relief charities. GlobalGiving was instrumental in selecting three charities that aligned with the three causes identified by Neutrogena, the J&J brand said.

At the Neutrogena Facebook page, teens completed a quiz to identify the type of cause they would most likely support. The final distribution of funding, based on the results of the online activity, is:

• 68% to the Women’s Global Education Project, a charity that supports education

• 23% to the Lambi Fund of Haiti, a charity that provides disaster relief

• 9% to the Whaleman Foundation, a charity that works to protect the environment

“I think that it is incredible that people were able to come together and really make a big difference. For me, I really think education is important and I love going to schools and talking to children,” commented Neutrogena brand ambassador Miranda Cosgrove. “It is a really awesome thing to be a part of,” she said.
