Description
Family is defined not by who you love, but how.
As America’s #1 pain reliever, Tylenol cares for all families. In 2015, we proved it with a program that reflected the diverse ways families look and act today, and celebrated the fundamental values we all share which create an enduring family bond.
TYLENOL® created a platform to spark a conversation and engage consumers to celebrate what makes their family unique - in turn, revealing the commonalities all families share by proudly proclaiming – this is #HowWeFamily.
