We're all about doing the right thing. When we say we hope to be "A Force for Good and A Force for Growth," we mean it. That's why our people and brands try to do good every day.
Whether it’s supporting hygiene education, providing a simple necessity like water or delivering essentials for families displaced by disaster, our goal is to improve the health and well-being of every community we touch.
As a company, we have a responsibility to give back to those in need.
The Power of Clean Water
In a world where nearly a billion people struggle with access to clean drinking water, our Children's Safe Drinking Water (CSDW) Program provides clean water to those in need. Our P&G Purifier of Water packets act as a water treatment plant - all in a 4-gram packet.
Each P&G water purification packet treats 10 liters of water by effectively eliminating bacteria, viruses, parasites, and solid materials. In just 30 minutes, a family of five can have clean drinking water for an entire day.
We achieved our 2020 goal a year early by delivering our 15 billionth liter of water in 2019. We set a new goal to deliver 25 billion liters by 2025.
Through our disaster relief efforts, our brands bring the comfort of home to those who suffered the effects of natural disasters. This year, we responded to more than 25 disasters around the world.
Over the last four years, we have donated 1.7 million products to those in need in Turkey.
2019 marks the 30th anniversary of Project
Hope in China where we have helped to build more
than 200 Hope Schools in China.
P&G brands help improve lives every day; when you clean your kitchen, wash your clothes, or diaper your baby. Your choice to trust P&G products in your home helps them make a difference around the world—where they can impact lives more than ever.
Oral-B + Red Cross
Oral-B® partnered with the Red Cross in Spain to equip families and children in need with access to proper oral health care, improving their overall well-being. This year, we helped approximately 400 children in different regions with oral and dental health care in the Red Cross projects, who normally would have difficulties accessing this care.
Pampers Preemie
Pampers is dedicated to the happy, healthy development of babies. It inspired us to create a diaper for the most vulnerable babies - as tiny as 800 grams. In Hong Kong, we worked with the Council of Early Childhood Education & Services to provide preemie diapers to families and offer professional consultation services to ease the stress that many experience in caring for a preemie infant. To date, more than 200,000 preemie diapers have been donated. In Taiwan, we partnered with five hospitals and donated more than 70,000 Pampers diapers to support preemie babies and their families.
Tide Loads of Hope
In times of disaster, Tide brings mobile laundry units to families who are affected so they may have clean clothes. This year, the program cleaned more than 6,000 loads of laundry during six deployments.
Healthy Hand Washing Habits
Since 2007, our Safeguard education program has helped 72 million children develop healthy hand-washing habits. This program in China has served to strengthen the emotional bond between mom and child, but also to establish early childhood practices through health and hygiene education.
Regional Program
Vicks Touch of Care
Vicks partnered with Mission Australia to help tell the real-life story of a young woman who experienced homelessness. Vicks and Mission Australia is helping to provide care for people like her around the world.
Helping Close to Home
In 1915, we helped establish the Cincinnati Community Chest, known today as the United Way of Greater of Cincinnati. Our annual campaign provides families in the Midwest regions with the support they need to achieve their goals, like preparing kids for kindergarten and obtaining financial stability.
Not Your Average Home
P&G employees around the world continue to put their muscles to good use for the benefit of families served by Habitat for Humanity. Our collaboration with Habitat for Humanity International is our largest participation program worldwide as employees help build and renovate homes for families in need in more than 20 locations around the world. In 2018-2019 alone, P&G employees contributed thousands of volunteer hours to families through Habitat for Humanity - benefiting nearly 2,500 people.
