GSG built upon the success of the “Preserve Our Parks” campaign to create success with another key customer, Vons (a division of Safeway). The campaign encouraged purchase of Coca-Cola products through in store POS and display activity, and allowed shoppers to vote for the best beach in Southern California. Winning beaches received a cash donation and a beach clean up day.

- $50,000 donated to 3 California State Park beaches
- 3 large clean up volunteer events at 3 winning beaches
- 110 million earned media impressions valued at $415,000
