JERSEY CITY, N.J., Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Goya Foods, the largest Hispanic-owned food company in the United States, launches GOYA® Cares Hydrate for Hope, a national campaign to raise awareness for the prevention and education of child abuse, exploitation, trafficking, and mental illness. This campaign will run from September 2024 to November 2024.

With the rising prevalence of child exploitation and mental health challenges in the United States, GOYA® Cares Hydrate for Hope aims to not only raise funds but also to foster greater awareness and education around the pressing need for the protection of our children. GOYA® Cares, a global initiative designed to support vulnerable communities through awareness, education, and resources that empower and protect children, has pledged to donate $200,000 or more from sales of GOYA® Coconut Water to help fund preventative education in schools nationwide in cooperation with our GOYA® Cares coalition partners and their efforts to protect children from abuse and promote mental health.

"The safety and well-being of children is paramount, and through our GOYA® Cares Hydrate for Hope campaign, we are committed to making a difference in the lives of our children," said Bob Unanue, President and CEO of Goya Foods. "Through education, awareness, and support we can help protect our most vulnerable population and our future generations. Together, we can initiate real change."

Goya Cares is proud to partner with respected organizations, including Olive Crest, Kristi House, Crime Stoppers of Houston, Salt & Light, Covenant House New York and New Jersey, and Center for Safety and Change. These organizations work tirelessly to combat child abuse, exploitation, and trafficking, while also providing mental health support and services.
