Season
Stove Top Ambassadors Provide Random Acts of Kindness While Launching
Nationwide Contest to Inspire Giving

GLENVIEW, Ill., Nov. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- This past year has been
challenging for many families coast-to-coast. To help share the warm holiday
spirit, Stove Top Stuffing is deploying its Spread the Warmth Ambassadors to
select cities nationwide to surprise unsuspecting Americans with goodwill and
support.

Throughout November and December, Stove Top Ambassadors will spread a little
warmth to residents in select cities by serving hot meals at shelters, helping
to pay heating bills and distributing hot cocoa to those who work outside in
the cold. Ambassadors will also be out on foot across each city, surprising
residents with acts of kindness such as paying bus fares and parking meters,
and distributing hand warmers and coupons for free Stove Top Stuffing.

"Stove Top Stuffing has been warming up families with delicious meals for
nearly 40 years," said Stove Top Brand Manager Ellen Thompson. "Today more
than ever people need a little extra warmth beyond the dinner table, so Stove
Top is lending a helping hand and inspiring others to do the same."
