On June 5, 2020, HACO Industries made a significant contribution to the fight against coronavirus by donating 2500 bottles of hand sanitizers and antibacterial hand wash to the Kenya Red Cross.
The donation was made possible by HACO Managing Director Mary-Ann Musangi, who emphasized the company's commitment to supporting Kenyans who lack access to water for handwashing.
"We are very happy to make a donation to the Red Cross for all the hard work they do whenever this country has a crisis and now during this coronavirus pandemic," she said.
According to Musangi, the company's donations to various institutions and hospitals will not be a one-off gesture, but a lasting partnership during the pandemic.
"This is going to be a continuous partnership on how we will continue working together, a local manufacturing company supporting the Kenya Red Cross," she said.
As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility, HACO Industries has also donated hand sanitizers to police stations and vulnerable communities in Nairobi, including Kasarani and Loresho Police stations.
