Partnership promoted literacy & diversity programs

Last week, PepsiCo’s PBNA North Division and MOSAIC partnered with the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville to help promote literacy and diversity programs with an emphasis on African American history.

The MOSAIC program is part of a company-wide PepsiCo initiative to promote inclusion and awareness among the country’s many cultures.

“Last week for Black History Month, Pepsi & MOSAIC donated over $5,000 worth of supplies and books,” Indiana Pepsi MOSAIC Lead Garry Edwards said. “The PepsiCo Indiana team also donated their time while learning about Boys & Girls Club programs and engaging with the youth! The volunteers also provided members with a free snack and Pepsi Beverage.”

With the support from PepsiCo, members were given a free book of their choice written by or about the African American experience to celebrate Black History Month.

“We are so excited to share for the second consecutive year the partnership between PepsiCo PBNA North Division and MOSAIC along with multiple chapters of the Indiana Boys & Girls Clubs to help promote literacy and diversity programs with a February emphasis on Black History,” PepsiCo North Division Sales Director Corey Langston said. “All year long, we look forward to this event and the smiles it put on the faces of almost 500 children across northern and central Indiana. We look forward to our continued partnership!”
