Colgate-Palmolive is using its dental vans to distribute health and hygiene products to support COVID-19 relief.
Colgate is distributing soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, body wash, and dishwashing detergent to those in need in major cities throughout the U.S. The products, which are valued at about $8 million, are being distributed to raise awareness about hand-washing and other hygiene practices to help stop the spread of COVID-19.
Additionally, Colgate is working with local school districts to coordinate product deliveries with ongoing grab-and-go lunch programs and with food banks and partner agencies in the Feeding America network, according to the company.
