DOVE MEN+CARE LAUNCHES “CARE MAKES A DAD” THIS FATHER’S DAY
Care Makes a Dad:
The new campaign from the men’s grooming brand will spotlight stories of the caring role that father figures play in the lives of so many
ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J. /PRNewswire/ — Every year, Father’s Day celebrates wonderful dads across the country. However, the role of dad can take many forms – and powerhouse men’s grooming brand Dove Men+Care is shining a light on that for Father’s Day this year.
New research commissioned by Dove Men+Care found that 70% of people have an impactful father figure in their life, but only 10% regularly celebrate them on Father’s Day. That’s why Dove Men+Care is recognizing the stepfathers, foster fathers, godfathers, brothers, coaches, friends, teachers and more this Father’s Day that have played the role of an impactful father figure through their unconditional care – the living proof that Care Makes a Difference. Care Makes A Dad.
To ignite this conversation, Dove Men+Care released a new film “Care Makes a Dad“. The film showcases the real stories of kids from across the U.S. and the special bonds they share with their father figures, who rise to the occasion every day to make a difference in their lives.
“We’re thrilled to bring attention to the unsung heroes of Father’s Day,” says Alejandro Fiecconi, Global Head of Brand for Dove Men+Care at Unilever. “There are children with father figures in their lives who mean the world to them, show up for them, support them. These men exemplify care. We wanted to give these men a round of applause – even if they didn’t ask for one.”
Joining this celebration is father figure and professional basketball player Nah’Shon Lee “Bones” Hyland. Bones has been a father figure to his cousin Izzy since a tragic incident brought them closer together when Izzy was a baby, creating an inseparable bond. Bones’ compassion and commitment to doing what’s right every day makes him a role model and hero to Izzy, and exemplifies the ways care makes a difference. Together, with five other father figures – from teachers, stepfathers, and grandfathers – they remind us that Care Makes a Dad.
“It’s an honor to be featured in this campaign,” says Bones Hyland. “My cousin Izzy is one of the most important people in my life. He’s like a son to me. I’ll be there for him every step of the way any way I can.”
Ogilvy, who led creative development of the campaign, shares more on the evolution of the campaign. “This year, building on our commitment to celebrate and champion the transformative care that all dads can give, we’re throwing the definition of fatherhood open wide,” says Rob Butcher, Global Creative Director, Dove Men+Care for Ogilvy. “This campaign celebrates all the men who step up to care out of choice. Coaches, uncles, adoptive fathers and community dads who show that care makes all the difference to the children in their lives.”
Dove Men+Care is bringing the ethos of the film to real life to spark a change on those we should recognize on Father’s Day and beyond by:
- Launching the “Celebrate ALL Father Figures”sweepstakes – a chance for everyone to recognize a father figure who has made a difference. Select winners will be featured in a full-page ad in The New York Times following Father’s Day.
- How to enter: Post a photo on Instagram featuring you and your father figure! It could be your dad, stepdad, uncle, coach, or anyone who played a significant role in your life. Make sure to tag @DoveMenCare and include the hashtags #CelebrateALLDads and #Sweepstakes. This sweepstakes will close on Father’s Day on June 16th. More information can be found here.
- Hosting a special Celebrate ALL Father Figures pop-up event in New York City on June 14th. Fit for the whole family, loved ones and the community to gather with their father figures, create special mementos for the holiday, and have a chance to participate in mini photo-shoots that reshape the literal picture of what it means to be a DAD. The event will take place from 2 PM to 6 PM at the 91st Street Plaza between 2nd and 3rd Avenue. Images captured will also be eligible for the sweepstakes.

5 consejos para viajar con problemas de salud
(Family Features) Desde estancias vacacionales y viajes por carretera hasta escapadas al Caribe y cruceros costeros, el verano ofrece la oportunidad de escapar y relajarse con unas vacaciones muy necesarias (y merecidas). Sin embargo, para las personas que viven con problemas de salud como enfermedades cardíacas o ataque cerebral, salir de casa puede plantear desafíos especiales.
A medida que la temporada de viajes toma forma, los expertos de la American Heart Association, que celebra 100 años de servicio para salvar vidas como la principal organización sin ánimo de lucro del mundo centrada en la salud del corazón y el cerebro para todos, recomiendan algunas consejos importantes para facilitar los problemas mientras viaja.
“Al acercarse el verano, muchas personas viajarán para pasar momentos preciados con familiares y amigos, o tal vez simplemente para disfrutar de un poco de relajación en la playa”, dijo Gladys Velarde, M.D., FAHA, profesora de medicina y voluntaria nacional de la American Heart Association. “No siempre es tan sencillo para las personas que padecen enfermedades crónicas que requieren múltiples medicamentos o equipo médico especial. También hay consideraciones sobre cómo mantener la salud y no correr un mayor riesgo”.
Velarde dijo que eso no significa que viajar esté prohibido si se tiene una condición de salud crónica. Un poco de planificación y preparación pueden reducir el estrés y prepararle para su próxima gran aventura.
Consulte con su proveedor de atención médica
Hable con su médico de atención primaria o especialista sobre sus planes de viaje y cualquier consideración especial relacionada con su salud. Él o ella puede ofrecerle orientación sobre las restricciones o precauciones que debe tener en cuenta. Lleve una lista de todos los medicamentos, incluidas las dosis y la información de farmacia. También considere llevar una copia de los registros médicos clave y una lista de números de teléfono, incluidos sus médicos y contactos de emergencia.
Gestione sus medicamentos
Asegúrese de que los medicamentos estén claramente etiquetados y de haber empacado lo suficiente para todo el viaje. Si viaja a través de zonas horarias, solicite la ayuda de su proveedor de atención médica para ajustar los horarios de los medicamentos. Algunos medicamentos requieren refrigeración; investigue cómo empacarlos adecuadamente según la seguridad del aeropuerto y asegúrese de tener un refrigerador en su alojamiento.
Plan de transporte
Ya sea que viaje en avión, autobús, tren, crucero u otro medio, es fundamental planificar con anticipación el equipo médico especial. Por ejemplo, si utiliza una silla de ruedas, un andador u otro tipo de asistencia para desplazarse, es posible que deba consultar con la compañía de viajes para saber cómo transportar adecuadamente sus dispositivos.
Domine el aeropuerto
Durante esta temporada de viajes especialmente ocupada, planificar con anticipación puede hacer que la experiencia en el aeropuerto sea más fácil. Si tiene un marcapasos o un desfibrilador automático implantable, es posible que deba pasar por un control de seguridad especial. Caminar por una terminal abarrotada puede pasar factura, así que considere solicitar una silla de ruedas o un carrito de cortesía para llegar a la puerta de embarque al reservar su boleto.
Los vuelos largos pueden aumentar el riesgo de sufrir coágulos sanguíneos, incluidas la trombosis venosa profunda y la embolia pulmonar. Considere usar calcetines de compresión y caminar por la cabina mientras sea seguro y esté permitido para ayudar a mejorar su circulación.
Conozca los signos
Si bien siempre es importante conocer los signos de un ataque cardíaco, ataque cerebral o paro cardíaco, es particularmente importante cuando se está fuera de casa. Si usted o alguien con quien está experimenta síntomas, llame al 911. Muchos aeropuertos incluso ofrecen quioscos donde puede aprender RCP con sólo las manos mientras espera su vuelo.
“La condición de cada individuo es única y usted querrá adaptar sus planes de viaje a sus necesidades específicas”, dijo Velarde. “Si se toma un poco de tiempo para planificar y prepararse, sus vacaciones pueden ser justo lo que recetó el médico para ayudarle a relajarse y recargar energías”.
