PepsiCo Recognized for Humanitarian Effort by Pakistani President Musharraf
On Sept. 21, 2006, Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf awarded PepsiCo the Sitara-i-Eisaar (Star of Sacrifice) Medal during a special investiture ceremony at the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, in Washington, D.C. PepsiCo was among approximately two dozen honorees that included the United States military and humanitarian relief agencies, civil society organizations, businesses, and individuals.

The medal, which reads on its face "In the Service of Humanity," commends PepsiCo's meritorious disaster relief work in the wake of the catastrophic earthquake that occurred last October in Azad Jammu and Kashmir and the North West Frontier of Pakistan. The earthquake killed more than 70,000 people, injured hundreds of thousands more, destroyed the region's infrastructure and created a humanitarian emergency.
