McDonald's launched an online campaign called "Create Your Own Legend" to promote their new McRib burger and raise money for Ronald McDonald House Charities. The campaign ran before Thanksgiving in 2010 and encouraged customers to purchase the McRib, which would lead to a $1 donation per burger to RMHC. McDonald's utilized various social media platforms like blogs, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube to increase awareness of the campaign and drive traffic. The goal was to both boost McRib sales and total donations to the charity.
