Clean Hands Glendale
The City of Glendale will distribute 30,000 bottles of hand sanitizer to businesses and residents via drive-thru pick-ups, pop-up events, and local business association distribution opportunities. These hand sanitizer bottles were generously donated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and CAL OES (Governor’s Office of Emergency Services). Logistics and dates for this program are still in the planning stages; however, it is anticipated that the bulk of the distribution will happen via:
- Drive-thru events – coordination of contactless drive-thru events to allow for businesses to pick up sanitizer.
- “Clean Hands” Store – set up at 117 Artsakh Avenue retail unit for contactless pick-ups.
- Business Associations – the City will work with business associations to assist in the distribution of hand sanitizer.
Businesses will receive up to 4 gallons of hand sanitizer + face masks while supplies last. Recent utility bill will be required as proof of business address. Must be located in Glendale on commercially zoned property.
Public Education/Outreach
City Fire personnel will visit businesses to raise awareness about the importance of health and safety guidelines via door to door outreach in a friendly, non-enforcement capacity. They will be ambassadors, encouraging responsible business practices by shedding light on City resources and programs. Their outreach toolkit will consist of:
