Rudi’s Gluten-Free Bakery Spreads the Bread by Going Dollar for Dollar
to Celebrate Celiac Awareness Month this May
 
Facebook fans can get a $1 off coupon for any Rudi’s Gluten-Free product by
simply selecting one celiac organization to receive $1

Boulder, Colo. – (May 1, 2012) – Rudi’s Gluten-Free Bakery is going big to celebrate Celiac Awareness Month by giving back to its favorite fans and all of the national celiac disease organizations dedicated to helping raise awareness on how to live a brighter, gluten-free life. From now through May 31, Rudi’s Gluten-Free fans can get and give some dough through Spread the Bread, a Facebook campaign with the goal of raising up to $30,000 for the leading celiac disease education and awareness organizations, including Celiac Disease Foundation (CDF), Celiac Sprue Association® (CSA), Gluten Intolerance Group® (GIG), and the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness (NFCA).

Rudi’s Gluten-Free Facebook fans are invited to select one of these four community partners to receive a $1 donation from Rudi’s Gluten-Free and then click for a downloadable coupon good for $1 off any Rudi’s Gluten-Free product. To follow the fun, fans can track the amount pledged to each organization and help encourage family and friends to donate to their favorite organization.

“These four amazing community partners help our gluten-free fans live life to the fullest,” said Doug Radi, vice president of marketing for Rudi’s Gluten-Free Bakery. “For more than 35 years, our team has believed there’s a better, brighter way to make bread, and we launched Rudi’s Gluten-Free as a way to make sure our gluten-free fans weren’t left out of the party. As we celebrate the goodness of a gluten-free life, we wanted to toast those who are making it even easier to stay happy and healthy—and what better way to do this than to give our fans the opportunity to support their favorite organization.”

Rudi’s Gluten-Free Bakery is committed to raising awareness and furthering education about celiac disease through partnerships, campaigns and event sponsorships—it’s all about making gluten-free life a little brighter. The leading celiac organizations benefitting from Spread the Bread during Celiac Awareness Month include:
