Since caring has been at the heart of Johnson & Johnson for more than 125 years its new Care Inspires Care Campaign drives home its belief that everyone has the power to do extraordinary things. This year, Johnson & Johnson is launching a worldwide campaign to show that everyone has that power to care for the health and well-being of others, especially when leading with their hearts.
Macaroni Kid loves to find ways for kids to get involved for a cause and this caring campaign is a great way to do that. At the beginning of the month, Miami-area Macaroni Kid publishers joined Karla Martinez at a caring event where school-aged children filled 100 backpacks with books that were then donated to promote early childhood education through the Save the Children “Early Steps to School Success” program. The caring act was simple and fun, but involved the children in helping other children.
The campaign is based on the Johnson & Johnson philosophy that one act of care can inspire another and ultimately, create a more caring world. Johnson & Johnson hopes to inspire people to spread care through big acts and small acts. The company will count millions of “cares” via their CareMeter this year, and will celebrate milestones along the way. Each milestone will celebrate a donation to their global partner Save the Children. Save the Children is the leading, independent organization that creates lasting change for children in need in the United States and around the world.
As part of the Care Inspires Care Campaign, Johnson & Johnson created the Champions of Care program to shine a spotlight on individuals who do inspiring acts of care. Are you or someone you know a Champion of Care? Has your life been changed by someone’s caring act? Nominate him or her here.
Six individuals in the United States will be selected as finalists and the public will vote and select the one Champion who will receive the official Champions of Care award and a trip of a lifetime to attend the FIFA World Cup™ final match on July 13, 2014 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with a guest.
Please join with Johnson & Johnson by sharing your cares on www.careinspirescare.com and the CARE INSPIRES CARE™ Facebook page.
