About This Project

Summary

Doritos launched the first-ever chip into orbit, not just to make history, but to make a difference. At the heart of this boundary-breaking campaign was a powerful purpose: transforming a moment of cultural curiosity into real-world impact. By partnering with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, we turned consumer engagement into a force for good —proving that bold innovation can inspire, connect, and create lasting change.

Goals & Objectives

The core objective of the campaign was to create a cultural touchstone moment that inspired people to act. By sending the first chip to space, Doritos sparked global attention, and we used that attention to shine a light on St. Jude’s earthside mission — the fight against childhood cancer.

Results & Impact

Doritos in Space campaign drove 7.5B impressions and raised $700K for St. Jude, reaching 50K+ families across six continents. By tying a zero-gravity chip to the moonshot of fighting childhood cancer, we inspired global action – proving bold ideas can fuel real change and connect people worldwide.
