Aflac Employees Add Creative Spice to 2024 Holiday Duck

This year's Aflac Holiday Duck holds extra special meaning for two employees whose spicey idea helped spark the 2024 theme. Dressed as a holiday baker complete with a festive plaid apron and baker's hat, this year's collectible plush holds in its wings a gingerbread man cookie - something Aflac employees Judy Davis and Miguel Cubas knew over a year ago would be a-dough-rable.

In a call for ideas for the next Aflac Holiday Duck, Davis, a Quality Assurance and Risk manager, and Cubas, a Systems engineer, submitted "anything gingerbread" and "gingerbread duck" - both drawing from special memories of the holiday treat.

"My mom passed away a few years ago, and she always had a gingerbread theme for Christmas," said Davis. "This year's holiday duck will be one of the most memorable things of my 38 years working with Aflac."

Cubas and his girlfriend, also an Aflac employee, have their own tradition of baking gingerbread cookies each year for the holidays.

Since 2001, net proceeds from the Aflac Holiday Duck program have contributed to more than $4 million donated to hospitals across the country that treat children with cancer and blood disorders. The 2024 Holiday Duck can be purchased, while supplies last, at AflacChildhoodCancer.org.
