Lysol’s New Online Resource: Mission For Health & $100 AmEx Gift Card Giveaway

As a mom of 3 children who attend 3 different schools, you can imagine the various amounts of germs that come into our home. I’m always on the look out for new products that kills germs on contact and kills airborne germs that causes colds, flus & viruses. Time and time again, I always fall back on Lysol Disinfecting Spray. Its known to kill 99.9% of viruses and bacteria such as mold, mildew, odor causing bacteria and bacteria such as MRSA.

Because I am diligent with using Lysol Disinfecting Spray, I’m very thankful & blessed to have children who rarely get sick. They also know to wash their hands constantly with soap and warm water for at least 30 seconds, especially when they get home from school.

I’m happy to work with Lysol and their Mission For Health program to help spread the news about their new campaign in helping new parents and teachers to help educate children in school about healthy habits and disaster relief efforts.

Two weeks ago, Lysol hosted their first ever live video chat with in-house health expert, Dr. Laura Jana. During the chat, they emphasized on answering questions about how to promote healthy lifestyles and when to keep kids home from school.

You can check out the recorded video chat below by clicking the play button:

Dr. Jana is a pediatrician, mother of three, Lysol® in-house health expert, and health communicator. She is well recognized nationally for her ongoing efforts to promote healthy lifestyles for children and offers credible, practical parenting advice.

The next 30 minute Live video chat with Dr. Jana is scheduled for tomorrow, Thursday, December 9th at 3:00 pm EST on Lysol’s Facebook Page.

To make it even easier for moms to help stop the spread of germs at home and school this cold & flu season, LYSOL is now offering Buy 1 Get 1 Free packs of LYSOL Disinfecting Wipes and LYSOL Dual Action Disinfecting Wipes at major retailers nationwide through January 2011. You can even give one to your child’s teacher to help keep classrooms germ free!
