(NSI News Source Info) February 6, 2009: Stepping out for a good cause, Salma Hayek launched the second year of the “One Pack = One Vaccine” campaign at the United States Fund for UNICEF in New York City on Thursday (February 5)The charitable cause is a partnership between Pampers and UNICEF that provides life saving vaccines to help eliminate Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus.
According to reports, “through May 1, 2009, for every specially marked pack of Pampers product purchased in the USA and Canada, Pampers will provide UNICEF with funding for one life-saving tetanus vaccine held at United States Fund for UNICEF.”
“What really excited me about this was the concept of mothers from around the world working together to protect children,” Hayek told press.
“The thought of somebody in Los Angeles, where I come from, purchasing the one pack of Pampers ... by doing this that they were going to do anyway, they could ... provide one vaccine for another mother somewhere else in the world, someone they don’t know ... these anonymous women around the world coming together to protect women and to protect children was really exciting.”
