Aflac Plush Holiday Ducks Raise Money to Fight Pediatric Cancer
Aflac and Macy's are selling an annual plush Holiday Duck to fight pediatric cancer. This year's Aflac duck is dressed as a green holiday tree with ornaments and a golden star that lights up. The plush duck says "Aflaaac" when squeezed. The ducks go on sale on Sunday, November 1st at participating Macy's and at aflacholidayduck.com.
The prices are unchanged from last year at $10 for the 6-inch duck and $15 for the 10-inch version. 100 percent of the proceeds go to the nearest of 37 participating pediatric cancer hospitals in the region where it is sold. Since its initial appearance in 2001, the Aflac Holiday Duck has raised more than $2.2 million for pediatric cancer research and treatment.
"Aflac understands that many families who routinely make charity a part of their holiday traditions are struggling this year," Aflac's Manager of Cause and Marketing Philanthropy, Buffy Swinehart, said. "The Aflac Duck, which is always there in times of need, offers fans with tight budgets a chance to give back in a meaningful way."
