200 Pferdestärken in einem Kleinwagen wie dem neuen Peugeot 208 GTI braucht zur normalen Fortbewegung niemand. Viele Kaufentscheidungen basieren jedoch nicht nur auf rationalen, sondern auch emotionalen Erwägungen. Sportivität, Fahrspaß und attraktives Design sind einige dieser Bauch-Faktoren. Und da beim bislang schnellsten 208 die alle zu finden sind, hat der ab Mitte Mai bei den Händlern stehende Dreitürer gute Chancen, sich einen angesehenen Platz in der Nische der leistungsstarken Kleinwagen zu sichern.

Today, Feeding America®, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization, and French’s® announce a national effort to help children and families who struggle with hunger. For every specially-marked bottle of French’s Mustard sold between April 18 and November 30, and specially-marked bottles of French’s Ketchup sold between April 18 and December 31, one meal* will be donated to the Feeding America nationwide network of 200 food banks.
More than 48 million people in America struggle with food insecurity, including 15 million children – at a life stage when food is critical to healthy growth and development. Food insecurity is defined as a lack of access, at times, to enough food for an active, healthy life, according to the USDA. It is an issue that affects every single county in our country.
“Food insecurity all too often goes unseen, but every day, millions of people in America are faced with insufficient food for themselves or their families,” said Diana Aviv, CEO of Feeding America. “Through this partnership with French’s, our nationwide network of food banks is better able to help fill this gap. This initiative not only helps to bring national attention to the massive problem of hunger in the U.S., but also provides everyone the opportunity to fight hunger in their local communities.”
