P&G Kicks Off Olympic Campaign

Worldwide Olympic Partner Procter & Gamble kicked off the company’s Thank You Mom campaign today with the Raising an Olympian series featuring Olay athlete Lindsey Vonn (US), Gillette athletes Felix Neureuther (Germany) and Sven Kramer (Netherlands) and Pantene athlete Elena Ilinykh (Russia). The launch of the Thank You Mom campaign marks 100 days to go until the start of the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games and is supported by more than fifteen P&G brands around the globe such as Pampers, Head & Shoulders and CoverGirl.

“P&G brands look at Olympic sponsorship through a special lens,” said Marc Pritchard P&G Global Brand Building Officer. “Our brands don’t just live at the finish line; they’re about the everyday journey athletes take to get to the Games, a journey they started in childhood with their moms. That’s why if a P&G brand sponsors an athlete, we also celebrate the mom who helped get them there.”

The P&G Sochi 2014 campaign will come to life through P&G’s iconic brands and their inspiring campaigns.
