Celebrating women in Clarksville and all over the world!

M&M’s is going to be celebrating women all over the world by honoring women who are flipping the status quo with limited-edition female packages of M&M’s.

The candy is releasing first-ever packs of M&M’s spotlighting its dynamic female characters ahead of International Women’s Day, according to Mars.

Mars said the limited-edition packages will feature its Green, Brown and Purple female characters.

The trio of female characters will be the first united representation together in one package!

In celebration of the limited-edition packs, the company is supporting organizations that are committed to uplifting and empowering women. A company spokesperson said it will donate $1 from every pack sold, totaling $500k towards supporting women via strategic partnerships.

You can also nominate women who are flipping the status quo from Jan. 5-15 for their nominee to be featured and receive $10,000 in grants to further fund their flip.
