Don Francisco
- Best-known entertainer on Spanish television
- 100 million viewers in over 20 countries
- Dedicated to health issues:
- Founded Chilean telethon for handicapped children
- UNICEF ambassador
- VP of US Muscular Dystrophy Association
- PAHO spokesman for public health campaigns throughout the Americas
So how can we reach these users?
If I asked you how many people know Don Francisco – before you looked at the board book page, probably I would have seen very few hands up.
However, if I asked how many people know Oprah Winfrey – probably everyone in this room knows who she is – well Don Francisco is arguably as well known in the Latino community as Oprah is here in the US.
Why is he so well known?
His television show, Sabado Gigante, which is based in Miami - has been on the air for over 40 years.
His popularity bridges the age groups and nationalities
Beyond his popularity - he is well known as a spokesman for health issues concerning the Hispanic community.
PAHO campaigns: childhood vaccinations, prenatal care, mental health and drug abuse
Also point out – Don Francisco donated his time to do these PSAs.
Slide 14
