Cheetos® and Bad Bunny to help fans leave their mark in U.S. hispanic communities with launch of $500,000 Deja Tu Huella Fund

Chester Cheetah and #badbunny ask "What Would You Do?" for chance to win cash prizing from #dejatuhuella Fund

PLANO, Texas, July 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- #cheetos and global recording artist #badbunny are at it again: teaming up for the third consecutive year to support Hispanic communities across the U.S. and Puerto Rico through the #dejatuhuella (Leave Your Mark) #campaign. Since 2020, the #dejatuhuella #campaign has recognized Hispanic communities and called on fans to leave their mark on all they do. This year, the #dejatuhuella notion will be brought to life with the launch of the $500,000 Deja tu Huella Fund.

Cheetos and #badbunny kicked off year three of their #partnership in May with Cheetos' new television commercial, Magic Touch. The commercial, which debuted during the 2022 Billboard Music Awards and featured new music off Bad Bunny's latest album, Un Verano Sin Ti, spotlights the "magic touch" the Hispanic community possesses to transform the world around them. Now, with the launch of the #dejatuhuella Fund, Cheetos® and #badbunny will award $25,000 each to 20 individuals using their "magic touch" to impact Hispanic communities.

"I am proud to partner with #cheetos for a third year. #cheetos is known to celebrate all forms of self expression, and, each year, we've been able to support people out there leaving their mark," said #badbunny. "From expanding the Latin Music category at the American Music Awards in 2020 to collaborating with adidas for an exclusive fashion line in 2021, and now the #dejatuhuella Fund this year, #cheetos has shown its commitment to a community that has impacted and continues to impact my life tremendously."

Between July 18 and August 19, fans are invited to share through TikTok how they would use $25,000 to make a positive impact on Hispanic communities in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Whether through art, music, fashion, food, education, community service or something else, everyone has the power to transform the world around them – and Chester Cheetah wants to hear about it. To enter for a chance to win $25,000, fans can use the #DejatuHuellaFund and #Entry hashtags when sharing their TikTok video that showcases how they'd use the fund to effect positive change.

"As a brand known for leaving its mark in culture, #cheetos is here to encourage others to do the same," said Stacy Taffet, senior vice president of marketing at Frito-Lay. "In the third iteration of the #dejatuhuella #campaign, we're eager to support fans on the ground in Hispanic communities across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. We're excited to hear from so many amazing individuals and learn more about the impressive ways they are taking action."

The #dejatuhuella Fund is the next iteration of the #cheetos Estudiante Fund that launched during the 2021 #campaign. That year, #cheetos joined forces with #badbunny and The Good Bunny Foundation to roll out a one-of-a-kind fashion collaboration with adidas to benefit the Estudiante Fund. The profits from the sale of the collection, along with Cheetos' contribution, provided $500,000 to help fund scholarships for fans who were leaving their mark on their communities. Cheetos' activity complements the PepsiCo and PepsiCo Foundation commitment to the Hispanic community, with $172 million in support over five years to further build on its long-standing efforts to address racial inequality.
