Global Handwashing Day 2009


Today we mark the Global Hand Washing Day which will echo and reinforce its call for improved hygiene practices. We are focusing a week of activities that will mobilize millions of people to wash their hands with soap. Hand washing with soap and water is one of the most affordable and effective interventions to prevent needless deaths of children under the age of five.

  2. I think it's great that this day can help raise awareness of the importance of handwashing. My daughter's school also uses HandClens Instant Hand Sanitizers to help kids hands remain clean throughout the day.
