Guangzhou-based P&G has donated RMB7.5 million to China Education Development Foundation to push China's national school health education program to a new level.

The National School Health Education Program is the largest health education program in China that benefits the most people and has the most comprehensive education themes. From this year on, P&G will continue to carry out dental, individual sanitation and adolescency health education at Chinese schools and drive the program to a deeper and more extensive level. P&G plans to invest about RMB200 million in the coming five years, including the RMB7.5 million in donation to CEDF, and continue to provide necessary materials free-of-charge to schools; help them improve their sanitation facilities and conditions; and train health education talents. It is estimated that up to 100 million people will benefit from this program.

Zhang Baoqing, director of CEDF, says that the National School Health Education Program will enter a new phase from 2008 and CEDF welcomes P&G's great support to the program and hopes that more companies will learn from P&G to make contributions to China's educational undertaking, promote the country's scientific development and the construction of a harmonious society.

Xiong Qingyun, general manager of P&G Hong Kong, says that P&G has been actively devoted to social welfare and caring for children's health education. She says that P&G will spare no efforts in promoting the development of school health education in China as well as in other parts of the world.

Previously, to support the Chinese government's manifesto of making primary healthcare accessible to everyone by 2000, Guangzhou P&G took a lead in initiating the national school health program in 1997. By the end of 2007, the company had donated a total of about RMB300 million, both in cash and in-kind donations to the program.
