As part of the KIND Snack & Give Back Project, KIND Healthy Snacks is introducing a limited-edition KIND HEROES bar that gives thanks to the military community.
KIND is also kicking off a partnership with Hope For The Warriors to support the organization's mission to assist wounded service members and their families. 100% of the proceeds from the new KIND HEROES bars—available in a Dark Chocolate Nuts & Sea Salt flavor—will be donated to Hope For The Warriors’ Warrior’s Wish Program.
As Mike Barkley, CEO of KIND, describes, "Through the KIND Snack & Give Back Project, we’re hoping to direct more compassion to deserving communities and, in the process, elevate values like kindness and empathy for many years to come."
