Kimberly-Clark Professional to Donate Cold and Flu Packages to University of Alberta Students

Wednesday, September 7, 2005, 8:30 am - 10:30 am

WHO: Kimberly-Clark Professional to donate cold and flu care
packages to students at the University of Alberta.

WHAT: To help prevent the spread of germs during the upcoming cold
and flu season, Kimberly-Clark Professional is donating
waterless hand sanitizers, facial tissue and information on
germ prevention to students at the University of Alberta as
they return to school for the "Week of Welcome." The donation
coincides with the launch of a new initiative: "Cleaning for a
Healthy University," which focuses on improvements in surface
cleaning and sanitation and other methods of germ prevention
throughout the 40,000-student institution.

WHERE: University of Alberta Students' Union Building
8900 114 Street
Edmonton, AB

WHEN: Wednesday, September 7, 2005

WHY: Hand washing is one of the most important ways to keep from
getting sick, according to both the U.S. Centers for Disease
Control (CDC) and the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health
and Safety. Waterless hand sanitizers can be used to cleanse
hands when soap and water are not available. Covering your
mouth or nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze is another
recommendation to help prevent the spread of germs to others.
