Salma Hayek knows the importance of being vaccinated especially now that she's a new mom to lil Valentina. She signed on to be the spokeswoman for the "One PackOne Vaccine" program that provides tetanus shots for African and Asian mothers and babies in need. According to UNICEF, tetanus kills 140,000 infants and 30,000 women each year.

To help support Salma's cause, pick up some Pampers. For each pack of diapers sold between April 1 and June 30, a tetanus vaccine will be given. Salma said:

"In our own small way, this is an opportunity for moms like me here in North America to help other mothers on a global level," Hayek, 41, said in a statement Wednesday."
