Special K features a pregnant woman on the box for the first time
Bestselling cookbook author Molly Baz kicks off the ‘Special for a Reason’ campaign

Editor's Pick
Kellogg’s Special K wants to show expectant mothers, along with other everyday people, just how special they are by featuring best-selling cookbook author Molly Baz on the box cover.
The first pregnant woman to ever be featured on the box, Baz kicks off the “Special for a Reason” campaign, spotlighting her along with other individuals and their stories to help them feel seen and special. Baz was chosen because she has used her platform to shine a light on motherhood, specifically how each mom’s journey is different and special.
As part of the campaign, Special K will donate $25,000 to United Way, a nonprofit dedicated to developing stronger, healthier communities. The donation will specifically support its Women United program.
