Coca-Cola Invites Kids from the Garden of Dreams
Coca-Cola and ShopRite made the holidays brighter for children in need, inviting 1,000 children from the Garden of Dreams Foundation to enjoy an exclusive performance of The Radio City Christmas Spectacular.
The Garden of Dreams Foundation is a non-profit charity that works closely with all areas of Madison Square Garden to make dreams come true for children in crisis.
Earlier, Coca-Cola joined hands with the National Park Foundation and diet expert Dr. Ian Smith to spearhead a campaign, “America Is Your Park.” It aimed to encourage Americans to be active outdoors and to cast a vote for their favorite park. (Read: Coca-Cola Says America Is Your Park)
