Over the course of an exciting day, we follow a family and their friends as they bake scrumptious cookies for a very special reason. 

This story highlights how food brings us together, and the joys of community can be felt in every detail– from the neighbors adding more chairs to the dining table, to the addition of each new cookie baker. The warm, welcoming color palette sets the tone for the sweet story, and the dynamic lighting arc covers a full day of preparation, culminating in the joyous reunion at dinnertime. 

Through this campaign, Kroger is honoring the work of the USO, and showcasing its support of the USO and the communities it serves.
