Found a very timely campaign from Lysol Philippines Facebook page (
https://www.facebook.com/LysolPH)- promoting healthy handwashing habits and awareness of the real impact of diarrhea to children under 5 in developing countries. Hadwashing might seem too simple, a no-brainer you might think, but stats are in and they're indeed alarming.

"Every day, more than 2,000 kids around the world die from preventable illnesses like diarrhea.
Tragically, every minute a parent loses a child when
simple handwashing with soap could break the chain of infection. That’s
why we’re on a mission to give life a hand."- RB Company in partnership with Save the Children
