April 14, 2009
LOS ANGELES — Jamba Juice has announced the kick-off of its latest promotion, School Bananananza ‘09 — a 6-week-long program that begins the company's year-long campaign to raise more than $1 million dollars for schools nationwide. In an effort to support and give back to local schools, participating Jamba Juice locations will sponsor a "Jamba School of the Week" where, with a flyer, 20 percent of all sales of any Jamba Juice product will be donated back to that school. Every week, for 6 weeks, a different school will be showcased. Coinciding with the 20 percent school give-backs, the Jamba Juice mascot, Bananaman, will be road-tripping across the country in his Jamba Bananavan — making guest appearances at schools and local events. Passing out school flyers, smoothies, coupons and summer-hire applications (Jamba has approximately 4,000 positions to fill). Bananaman will kick off his tour in Los Angeles on April 14.
