Get Real Inc. is positioned as a fictional start-up, with a mission inspired by a glass of real milk, that humorously highlights modern society’s increasing detachment from what’s real. In a world filled with technology and inventions that often take us further away from authenticity, Got Milk’s new campaign is a refreshing call to action, reminding us to cherish the virtues of being real.
The campaign's featured influencers and their creations include:

In addition to promoting realness, the CMPB is committed to supporting the future generation of California leaders and innovators by donating $1 to select Boys and Girls Clubs across the state for each share, up to $100,000.
Steve James, Executive Director of the California Milk Processor Board said, “Real milk isn't just a beverage; it's a natural source of essential nutrients, a symbol of authenticity, and a way to savor life's real moments. This campaign reflects our commitment to fostering genuine relationships and supporting the future leaders of our communities.”
