Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, RB and Woolworths have proven themselves to be key supporters of Meals on Wheels.

The support is continuing with the donation of 50,000 Hygiene Packs^ to the not-for-profit organisation.

Packs will include a variety of Glen 20 and Pine O Cleen products, including Glen 20 Surface Spray Disinfectant which is proven to kill the Covid-19 virus on hard surfaces*.

“The roll-out of the Covid-19 vaccine may be underway but hygiene at home continues to be incredibly important, especially for vulnerable Australians,” President of Meals on Wheels Australia, Sharyn Broer says.

“These Hygiene Packs from RB and Woolworths will go a long way in helping to ensure our customers around the country can maintain a clean and healthy home, and we are incredibly grateful for the support.”

Marketing Director at RB Hygiene ANZ, Saurabh Jain adds: “As the fight against Covid-19 goes on, we are proud to be continuing our support of Meals on Wheels.

“We greatly admire their commitment to helping vulnerable, older Australians and are in awe of their ability to uphold the high standard of support they provide their customers, even in the midst of global pandemic.”

Partnership packed with benefits

Woolworths Merchandise Manager, Household and Pet, John Loaders says, “Building on the strong partnership Woolworths has with Meals on Wheels, the opportunity with RB will take our commitment to customer safety one step further, particularly for more elderly, vulnerable and isolated Australians.”

Distribution of the Hygiene Packs will commence from late April with Woolworths and Meals on Wheels working to enable its volunteers to access the packs for their customers locally via pre-loaded Everyday Rewards cards.
