While the London 2012 Olympic Games are still a few months away, Procter & Gamble are already preparing!
Procter & Gamble is donating $25,000 on behalf of Family Dollar to the P&G Team USA Youth Sports Fund, but their goodwill doesn't end there. P&G has partnered with Lolo Jones, world champion hurdler and U.S. Olympic hopeful!
Knowing this, I had to take a look at this short film by Procter & Gamble.
Why is Procter & Gamble partnering with Lolo Jones?
Jones attended 8 schools in 8 years while her single mother often held down two jobs to support their family of six. When she was in the third grade, the Jones family settled in the basement of a Des Moines-area church.
Lolo attributes her success to the support of her mom and community, as well as hard work and determination.
“Growing up we didn’t have a lot of money so my mom really had to stretch her budget,” Jones said. “My family really benefited from the great values we received on P&G products from Family Dollar.”
You can learn more about Lolo Jones and her incredible journey at www.followlolorun.com and of course, find great deals for your own family at Family Dollar!
