The NUTRILITE Brand and Ronaldinho Have Teamed Up to Generate 10 Million Virtual "Kicks" for Kids at EveryKickCounts.com

Soccer Fans Around the World Can Trigger Donation By Simply Forwarding Email Message

Ada, Mich. (PRWEB) December 15, 2008 -- A dynamic new online campaign supporting the NUTRILITE™ brand, featuring international soccer star and Team NUTRILITE spokesman Ronaldinho, launches today at www.EveryKickCounts.com and soccer fans everywhere can play a part.

"The NUTRILITE brand has one of the world's most well known sports figures in Ronaldinho as a customer and spokesperson - we're in a unique position to encourage his fans to connect with our common causes and play a part," said John Dykhouse, Brand Manager for Amway Corporate Marketing.

By simply forwarding the virtual message (or "kick") to friends, fans automatically trigger a donation to child focused NGOs around the world through the AMWAY ONE BY ONE™ Campaign for Children.

"As the first ever global ambassador for the One by One Campaign for Children, we are thankful that Ronaldinho is sharing the spotlight once again to benefit children in need" says Kim Drabik, Manager of Amway Corporate Citizenship. "This lifts our philanthropic programs to a new level."

The more kicks generated, the more Nutrilite will donate to the AMWAY ONE BY ONE Campaign for Children. The campaign goal is to generate 10 million "kicks" worldwide.

Upon visiting www.EveryKickCounts.com, fans are encouraged to pass a virtual soccer ball to friends via email or popular social networking sites such as Facebook and Orkut. All kick emails can be tracked on the website so fans can follow their efforts of goodwill around the globe, along with a real-time donation ticker that compiles contribution totals.
