Since this initiative began in 2023, Cadbury has donated over $270,000 in grants and community donations to volunteers and clubs throughout Australia. The Cheer & A Half campaign also extends to initiatives promoting women in sport and providing funding and sponsoring across various Australian sports codes, ensuring a broad impact on community sports nationwide.
At Cadbury, we believe in celebrating the unique contributions of every volunteer in our community sports clubs. By using generative AI, we can create custom videos that capture the diverse faces and roles of these incredible individuals. This technology helps us give a cheer to every volunteer, ensuring everyone feels recognised and appreciated for their efforts.
Cadbury is deeply committed to representing the full spectrum of our community. Wheelchair users will be represented from late June, we acknowledge this is just the beginning. Nearly 20% of Australians and Kiwis live with a visible or non-visible disability, yet only 1% of ads include them*. We are dedicated to expanding this representation to include a wider range of disabilities, such as those of amputees and individuals with vision impairments. With the rapid advancements in generative AI technology, we aim to include more diverse representations in our upcoming promotions. This effort is part of our long-term project to embody inclusivity in all our initiatives, reflecting our commitment to representing all abilities.
