Since the outbreak of the pandemic, through our #PGSurakshaIndia program, we have stepped up to support the health, safety, and wellbeing of our employees, our consumers and the communities. In the current situation and going forward, vaccines play a critical role in containing the spread of the virus. We strongly believe that partnering with various governments and local authorities, who are leading the inoculation initiatives for citizens will enable us to make a meaningful difference to the communities we operate in.”
This contribution towards vaccines will be on top of P&G’s earmarked CSR funds for the current year. As India fights the second wave of the pandemic, under its #PGSurakshaIndia program, P&G will also continue to extend its support to the broader community through the donation of products, in-house manufactured masks and sanitizers especially to aid frontline and essential workers who are tirelessly working to combat the spread of COVID-19. The company will also continue to leverage its advertising and brand voice responsibly to increase awareness on health, safety and hygiene measures among consumers and the community.

Through this program, P&G has donated more than 35 lakhs of our health, hygiene and cleaning products (which include Whisper, Ariel, Tide, Vicks, Pampers etc.) to the communities we operate in. P&G stepped up its manufacturing capabilities to produce masks and hand sanitizers to donate more than 15 lakh masks in the country’s fight against COVID-19.
In addition to this, the company launched ‘force for good’ campaigns, like Gillette Barber Suraksha Program, Whisper, P&G #ThankYouMa, Vicks #ShowWeCare and Tide #AngelsInWhite to support India’s fight against COVID-19. In total, via these force for good campaigns and efforts from the company’s trial/in-store teams; P&G has reached more than 5 crore Indians to spread awareness on safety, health and hygiene.
