CINCINNATI, Feb. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pampers(R), the world's leading diaper brand, today announced the second wave of its North America "One Pack = One Vaccine" campaign to benefit UNICEF. The campaign assists UNICEF in fighting Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus (MNT) by generating funding to aid UNICEF in their mission of providing life-saving vaccines to help protect pregnant women and women of child-bearing age in developing countries against this deadly disease.

At a press conference today in New York, Pampers was joined by actress, mother and "One Pack = One Vaccine" international spokesperson, Salma Hayek, to announce the continued success of the North American campaign, which provided funding for more than 45 million tetanus vaccines in 2008, and aims to raise funds for an additional 30 million tetanus vaccines this year. According to UNICEF estimates, 386 million vaccines are needed to wipe out tetanus in the 46 countries that have yet to eliminate the disease, and Pampers' global goal over the next three years is to provide funding for more than half of the needed tetanus vaccines (200 million).
