Some recent HM&P work for Georgia-Pacific Professional includes an online teaching tool to help kindergarten and
first grade students learn the proper way to wash their hands. The Art of Washing Hands site (www.ArtOfWashingHands.com) is part of Georgia-Pacific Professional’s effort to improve hand washing practices across the country – and HM&P is excited to help them spread the word.
In fact, the project extends beyond the site. Earlier this month, The Art Of Washing Hands materials were shipped to schools as an insert to Weekly Reader. (Yes, the same Weekly Reader we had as elementary students!) Last fall the free materials were offered to school nurses as well. Plus, Mo, Georgia-Pacific Professional’s VP of Hygiene and Chairman of Cool, has been promoting the program in schools. In fact, he visited one in The Villages, FL just yesterday.
A press release announcing the site and the program was launched this week. Check out this great coverage:
This is a fabulous program. Kindergarten and 1st grade students alike have and will continue to enjoy learning about how to wash hands properly from Mo!
