Hand sanitizer is a much-needed safety item as the COVID-19 pandemic rages on, but many organizations are reeling from overstretched budgets and don’t have the money to keep up with the demand they have for basic protective supplies. Florida’s Kira Labs wants to help—by giving away one million tubes of its Medyskin Hand Sanitizer to groups in need.

Several South Florida organizations have already benefited from the generosity of Kira Labs and its partner Simple Life Medical. Orange County was the recipient of 100,000 tubes, a local chapter of the Salvation Army received 20,000, and 10,000 hand sanitizer tubes were delivered to the Orlando Airport. Thousands more have gone to community partners such as Boys & Girls Club of St. Lucie County, Little Smiles, and the Delray Housing Authority.
