Tork, an Essity brand, and the Philadelphia Eagles are partnering to raise awareness, and promote the benefits, of proper hygiene access in the Philadelphia community through the Tackle Hygiene with Every Catch campaign. Now in its fifth year, the campaign has become a powerful tradition, converting the team’s success of a total 1,418 receptions since the 2021 season, into $141,800 worth of sustainable hygiene products donated to local Philadelphia charities to-date. This year, for every catch the Eagles make during the season, Tork will donate $100 worth of sustainable hygiene products to Ronald McDonald House Philadelphia.
As part of the donation, Tork will upgrade the Chestnut Street house with its industry-leading hygiene solutions such as:
- Certified easy-to-use hand towel, toilet, soap and sanitizer dispensers
- Dermatologically tested and allergy-friendly soap and sanitizer refills
- Surface cleaning wipers
- Yes, but I still need to submit for translations to get
“The Tackle Hygiene Campaign’s generous donation of up to $40,000 in Tork products will support our mission of providing essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing at the Ronald McDonald house on Chestnut Street,” said Nick Guerrino, Corporate Partnerships Manager at RMH Philadelphia. “This donation will help us provide a cleaner and safer environment for the children and families we serve.”
“We’re proud to continue our partnership with the Philadelphia Eagles and Ronald McDonald House Philadelphia as we raise awareness for the importance of removing barriers to hygiene. By upgrading this facility with hygiene solutions that thoughtfully consider the diverse abilities, needs and circumstances of individuals, we’re taking meaningful steps toward making hygiene more accessible for all,” said Raquel Carbonari, Brand Activation Director, Essity.
“We are proud to promote, educate, and encourage proper hygiene in communities across the Greater Philadelphia region with Tork,” said Brian Napoli, Senior Vice President, Corporate Partnerships, Philadelphia Eagles. “Our longstanding partnership has enabled us to provide sustainable hygiene products for those in need through the Tackle Hygiene with Every Catch program. We are thrilled that this year’s campaign will support the mission of Ronald McDonald House Philadelphia.”
