I work in a school and although I am not a teacher and have limited exposure to the kids, I have gotten sick. Even with all the precautions taken by me and the school, the fact is that there are germs everywhere. This is where Kleenex Brand comes in.
For the second year in a row, the Kleenex Brand is calling on Hispanic kids to join the fight against colds by becoming Certified Sneeze Catchers or Atrapa Estornudos. This time, however, the brand is also looking for mom to join the cause. As an enticement, The Kleenex brand is offering moms a chance to win a gift card worth hundreds of dollars and a year’s supply of Kleenex brand facial tissue by entering a national sweepstakes at http://www.atrapaestornudos.com/.
“We’re excited to continue this program, which has proven to be so successful,” said Ken Champa, associate brand manager for Kleenex brand. “By engaging her kids, the first year we were able to turn a large number of Latina moms into Kleenex facial tissue users. Now that she’s more aware of Kleenex brand’s benefits, we also want to speak directly to her in a more adult voice about how Sneeze Shield technology helps keep the ’wet stuff’ off hands while still delivering unmatched softness.”
Kleenex Brand will be hosting a number of in-store events around the country designed to allow Latina shoppers to experience the product and see for themselves why Kleenex brand facial tissues are considered America’s softest tissue. A new landing page on the Sneeze Catchers/Atrapa Estornudos website will also be devoted entirely to mom, helping explain how Sneeze Shield technology works. A toll-free phone number has also been set up to help mom learn more about the program.
Sneeze Shield is a proprietary, protective layer in each Kleenex facial tissue that retains moisture longer than other tissues. Of all facial tissues on the market, only Kleenex brand offers Sneeze Shield in all of its tissues.
The national campaign will once again include a massive Spanish-language TV, radio, PR, grassroots and digital strategy aimed at enlisting Hispanic children to sign up to become Sneeze Catchers. Besides receiving a free kit with educational games and activities about proper cold-related hygiene practices, children who sign up this year will also have an opportunity to receive additional prizes, including a Kleenex branded bag, branded t-shirts for mom and child, and an official Kleenex brand Certified Sneeze Catcher ID card.

For more information on certifying children as Sneeze Catchers, as well as instructions on entering the sweepstakes, visit Atrapa Estornudos or call toll free 1-888-718-5569.
Once on the site, remember to enter the contest because you can win a year of Kleenex and a $500 gift card! WOO! Thanks to the great people at Kleenex I have a super duper Los Atrapa Estronudos/Sneeze Catchers basket for one lucky reader. YAY! Just enter on the Rafflecopet widget below.

SPANISH VERSION:
Por segundo año consecutivo, la marca Kleenex está instando a los niños hispanos a unirse a la lucha contra el catarro certificándose como Atrapa Estornudos. Esta vez, sin embargo, la marca también busca que mamá se una a la causa. Como estímulo, la marca Kleenex le está ofreciendo una oportunidad de ganarse una tarjeta premiada valorada en cientos de dólares, así como un año de pañuelos faciales marca Kleenex, mediante un sorteo nacional en www.atrapaestornudos.com.
“Estamos entusiasmados de continuar este programa, el cual ha demostrado ser muy exitoso,” dijo Ken Champa, gerente de marca asociado de la marca Kleenex. “Al involucrar a sus hijos el primer año pudimos convertir a un número grande de madres hispanas en usuarias del pañuelo facial Kleenex. Ya que está más consciente de las ventajas de la marca Kleenex, queremos hablarle más directamente, en una voz más adulta, acerca de cómo la tecnología Sneeze Shield ayuda a mantener las manos limpias a la vez que le ofrece una suavidad sin par.”
Con ese fin, la marca realizará un sin numero de eventos en tiendas alrededor del país diseñados a permitirle a las consumidoras Latinas a experimentar el producto y ver por si mismas por que los pañuelos faciales marca Kleenex se consideran los más suaves de los Estados Unidos. Una nueva página digital en el sitio web de los Atrapa Estornudos también estará dedicada totalmente a las mamás, ayudando a explicarles cómo funciona la tecnología Sneeze Shield. Una línea telefónica gratuita también ayudará a mamá a conocer mejor el programa.
Sneeze Shield es una capa protectora propiedad de los pañuelos faciales Kleenex que retiene la humedad más tiempo. De todos los pañuelos faciales en el mercado, solamente la marca Kleenex ofrece Sneeze Shield en todos sus pañuelos.
La campaña nacional incluirá una vez más una masiva estrategia de televisión, radio, relaciones públicas, marketing de base y digital dirigida a alistar a los niños hispanos a que se certifiquen como Atrapa Estornudos. Además de recibir un kit gratis** con juegos y actividades didácticos acerca de la higiene apropiada a emplear cuando se tiene catarro, los niños que se certifiquen este año también tendrán la oportunidad de recibir premios adicionales incluyendo una bolsa de la marca Kleenex, playeras para niño y mama y una tarjeta que lo identifique como Atrapa Estornudo Oficial de la Marca Kleenex.
La expansión del programa se anuncia a raíz del lanzamiento importante de un nuevo producto revolucionario que se realizó en el 2011 – el pañuelo Cool Touch de Kleenex – que refresca al hacer contacto con la piel y provee una manera mejor de aliviar. El pañuelo, enriquecido con una fórmula exclusiva que contiene humectantes refrescantes, provoca una sensación fresca que ayuda a aliviar la irritación que causa el constante soplar de la nariz.
What a fun way to engage the kids! Its gonna be better than catching fire-flies! LOL I learned that only Kleenex brand offers Sneeze Shield. Thanks
