Donate your rotten turnips at Animal Crossing and help a good cause

Games and mobile applications have become a showcase for social works. Nowadays it is rare for the user who does not have any app of this type installed on her mobile and more and more they are using them to carry out campaigns to help those most in need. This is the case of Animal Crossing, in which its players will find the opportunity to be better people without having to leave their virtual farm.

Food waste awareness

The Canadian division of the food company Hellmann’s has partnered with Animal Crossing to launch a charity campaign in which to donate food to those most in need through the NGO Second Harvest. In order to collaborate you have to use Animal Crossing: New Horizons and you will only need to turn your virtual food into real food for these people. With this measure they try to make people aware of the large amount of food that is wasted throughout the first world when there are other people in other places who do not have facilities to have access to basic goods such as healthy foods.
From the game, players are encouraged to donate their turnips that they have not been able to sell and have already expired to the company island, where they must leave them and for each of them Hellmann’s will donate a meal. The goal has been set to reach 25,000 products for those most in need in Canada.
The campaign will be available from August 17 to August 22, to be able to access this island you just have to send a private message to the Twitter of the mayonnaise company, @HelmannsCanada, in which they will give you a code to visit the Island in order of arrival and with a time limit of 15 minutes per player. You will have to be very quick to drop off your turnips and visit the island, because time is ticking and visits are only allowed 100 visitors per day.
Because on this island you can find many more places to visit, such as Hellmann’s farm, where you will find free official merchandise of the brand and in the shape of its logo.
Food waste is something that does not happen only in real life, players who do not manage to sell their turnips on time see how they go bad and it is a real waste of virtual food. One of the objectives sought with this initiative is to create awareness among players of this problem and that they make responsible use.
