Each click donates $1 (15 meals!) to charity. You can click once a day.

I'm pretty sure it's legit too, as it's Dannon. So start clicking.

Sure why not; it only takes 1.3 seconds

Glad I was able to help

clicked, wish more companies would do something similar to this.

Not a bad marketing idea. Dannon is practically paying $1 per targeted click they receive on their web site. So far over 1,000,000 potential customers got to:

1. be reminded of their brand name
2. may have had a chance to look at their products
3. think of how caring dannon inc. is.

So? Atleast they're donating. Much more than you can say for many companies. Fifteen meals is fifteen meals.

Also, the counter totals how many MEALS they're giving--I did the math, and it's just over 70,000 clicks.

clicked; I don't know if its for real or not, but it was worth the few seconds

[ldcdc]

Clicked. It's the least I can do.

[kneuf]

I clicked also, real or not, took only a few seconds. If it's real, it is a nice thing they are doing.

[iGravity]

Go Dannon! Pretty cool that they are doing that.

I bought their yogurt today, looks like I picked the right brand

1. nfi who/what Dannon is
2. spent less than 5 seconds with their site open.. including loading time
3. see 1

I have to say I agree with you, this IS a marketing trick, i just happen to think that it wont work.

[case]

if i can feed a family for a couple of days, or a person for a week simply by clicking a banner, you better believe im gonna do it.... click!

[DT-Spirit]

I wonder who voted didn't click.
