Community impact
There’s a world of good in here
We’re all about doing the right thing. That’s why our community support focuses on providing health, hygiene and the comforts of home—three unique areas where P&G products can have more impact than ever.
Whether it’s supporting hygiene education, providing a simple necessity like water or delivering essentials for families displaced by disaster, our goal is to improve the health and well-being of every community we touch.

Supporting communities
P&G makes an impact in communities around the world through our people, our family of brands and our partners by delivering the comforts of home, health and hygiene.
The power of clean water
In a world where nearly a billion people struggle to get clean drinking water, our Children’s Safe Drinking Water (CSDW) Programme provides clean water to those who need it most. Our purification packet broke new ground simply by providing a way to make dirty water drinkable. Across Africa we partner with organisations such as GIft of the Givers and PSI to bring clean water to communities in need.
Each P&G water purification packet treats 10 liters of water by effectively eliminating bacteria, viruses, parasites, and solid materials. In just 30 minutes, a family of five can have clean drinking water for an entire day.
Since 2004, we’ve delivered more than 13 billion liters of clean water. With a goal of 15 billion by 2020, we’re well on our way there.
Delivering Relief in Times of Need
In the aftermath of disaster, our goal is to bring the comforts of home to those who need it most. This year, we responded to more than 20 disasters globally and helped millions of people.
Provided more than $1 million in disaster relief grants to organizations on the ground, like CARE, Habitat for Humanity, Red Cross, and Save the Children, to name a few

Brands leading the way
P&G brands help to improve lives every day; when you clean your kitchen, wash your clothes or change your baby's nappy. Your choice to trust P&G products in your home helps them to make a difference around the world—where they can have more of an impact on lives than ever before.
Pampers + UNICEF “1 pack = 1 vaccine”
Maternal and newborn tetanus (MNT) affects families in some of the poorest areas of the world as a direct result of unhygienic birthing practices. There’s no real cure, and MNT claims the lives of 34,000 newborns every year.
Since the Pampers + UNICEF “1 pack = 1 vaccine” campaign began in 2006, more than half a million newborn babies have been saved, and we’ve eliminated the disease in 20 countries.
