Update regarding June 2025 security incident. View notification
The spirit of service and compassion was on full display as members of the Aflac team injected a bit of heartwarming community outreach into their leadership summit in Plantation, Florida.
To deliver smiles for the patients at Salah Foundation Children’s Hospital and show gratitude to the hospital’s dedicated staff, the Aflac team created cheerful encouragement cards that included handwritten messages and colorful drawings, reflecting the summit’s spirit of empathy and leadership in action.
This event followed the recent arrival of My Special Aflac Duck® — a robotic duck designed to comfort children and families facing a pediatric cancer or blood disorders diagnosis — to Salah Foundation Children’s Hospital. Special guests, including the head nurse and a hospital staff member, joined the summit not only to receive the personalized gifts, but to also express their gratitude for My Special Aflac Duck and share the profound impact the program has had on their patients.
“We are grateful for this new relationship with Salah Foundation Children’s Hospital, which began with the recent arrival of My Special Aflac Duck to bring a dose of comfort and joy for young patients diagnosed with pediatric cancer and blood disorders,” said Buffy Swinehart, senior manager, Aflac Corporate Social Responsibility. “We were thrilled to hear how this program has become a valuable resource for their care team and are delighted to support their incredible mission."
This special activity not only brought smiles to children and health care heroes, but it also reminded every summit attendee of the power of compassion-driven leadership and of how care is at the core of Aflac’s culture.
