The book, which captures the history and significant achievements of the Company through the images of celebrated photographer Scott Woodward and words penned by lifestyle writer Stephanie Zubiri, is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the men and women behind the organization.<\/p>\n
#SAFEWASH in Schools is a synergy project between Manila Water Foundation and P&G Safeguard Philippines, along with various national government agencies, to promote proper handwashing by providing the critical infrastructure to enable the life-long habit.<\/p>\n
This project supports the WASH in Schools or WinS Program of the Department of Education and its BIDA Kid Campaign with the Department of Health, strengthening health and safety protocols in schools for the complete implementation of in-person classes, preventing communicable diseases, and promoting health and hygiene.<\/p>\n
#SAFEWASH in Schools significantly enhanced the access to hygiene facilities and supplies for more than half a million individuals in 285 campuses in the National Capital Region and the Province of Rizal. Under the project, student access to facilities improved by an average of 41%, with the highest improvement being 91% in the student-to-faucet ratio.<\/p>\n
