Join us for the Rally around World Milk Day and Enjoy Dairy

Last year, World Milk Day took social media by storm – occurring over 42 hours around the world with 586 events in 72 countries, with the hashtag #WorldMilkDay reaching 868 million impressions.

This year, the Global Dairy Platform is counting on all of you to break new records to celebrate the benefits that milk and dairy products bring to our lives. And the 2019 celebration starts early with an Enjoy Dairy Rally May 29 – May 31, culminating with World Milk Day on Saturday, June 1. Details for the Enjoy Dairy Rally will be shared shortly, but it will be a global social media campaign promoting the Nutrition, Community and Enjoyment benefits of dairy tied together with the hashtags #WorldMilkDay and #EnjoyDairy
