“On the field, I’m focused on the game, but off the field, I’m
all about being as present and active as possible with my baby,
especially during diaper duty. When I learned that 9 out of 10 dads
have gone into a public restroom that has not had a baby changing
table, I couldn’t help but get involved with Pampers’ commitment to
provide more access in public restrooms,” said Sterling Shepard.
“I’m so excited to partner with Pampers in my home of New York City
to make sure every hands-on dad who is out and about with his baby
has access to a changing table.”
As part of the celebration, Pampers is again partnering with
#SquatForChange founder, Donte Palmer, to help install some of the
new changing tables. Palmer placed changing table inequality front
and center in 2018, when an image he posted on social media with
his child in his lap squatting to change his son’s diaper went
viral.
“We are proud to partner with NFL players and Donte Palmer who
are hands-on dads, and want to help enable them and other fathers
in their communities to have access to changing tables,” said Andre
Schulten, dad of two and Vice President and General Manager Baby
Care North America, Procter & Gamble. “At Pampers, we are
committed to removing barriers that make diaper changes on the go
difficult and we’re arming parents with the proper changing table
resources they need so they can love the change.”
